THE OFFERING.

A wreath of wild flowers, Lord, I bring,
And lay the humble tribute at thy feet;

I would, indeed, they were more fair, more sweet,
They should be strewed, my great and glorious King,
With grateful heart before Thy mercy-seat:

For well I know the fairest were unmeet

To crown Thy sacred brow, or deck Thy throne;

For Thou art Lord of all and God alone.

Upon Thy head is many a diadem;

All power in heaven and in earth is Thine-
To Thee all hearts are open-look on mine—
And if it beats for Thee, do not contemn
The lowly mite of love that would assign
Her all an offering to Thy grace divine;
Lord Jesus, let Thy grace so rest on me,
That endless glory may revert to Thee!

The Christian Florist.
