Strana 291 - Make us glad according to the days wherein thou hast afflicted us And the years wherein we have seen evil.
Strana 291 - Lord, thou hast been our dwelling-place in all generations. Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever thou hadst formed the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting, thou art God. Thou turnest man to destruction; and sayest, Return, ye children of men. For a thousand years in thy sight are but as yesterday when it is past, and as a watch in the night.
Strana 6 - ... in the worm that crawled at his foot, and in his own matchless form, glowing with a spark of that light, to whose mysterious source he bent, in humble though blind adoration. And all this has passed away. Across the ocean came a pilgrim bark, bearing the seeds of life and death. The former were sown for you, the latter sprang up in the path of the simple native.
Strana 291 - Let thy work appear unto thy servants, And thy glory unto their children. And let the beauty of the LORD our God be upon us: And establish thou the work of our hands upon us; Yea, the work of our hands establish thou it.

Strana 188 - But he that received the seed into stony places, the same is he that heareth the word, and anon with joy receiveth it ; yet hath he not root in himself, but dureth for a while ; for when tribulation or persecution ariseth because of the word, by and by he is offended.
Strana 4 - You will hear every day the maxims of a low prudence. You will hear that the first duty is to get land and money, place and name. 'What is this Truth you seek ? What is this Beauty !
Strana 291 - Be thou, O God, exalted high ; And as thy glory fills the sky, So let it be on earth displayed, Till thou art here, as there, obeyed.
Strana 252 - We stain thy flowers, — they blossom o'er the dead; We rend thy bosom, and it gives us bread ; O'er the red...
