Seite 36 - Acute disease and weakening pain ; When life fast spends her feeble flame, And all the help of man is vain: Joyless and dark all things appear, Languid the spirits, weak the flesh: Med'cines can't ease, nor cordials cheer, Nor food support, nor sleep refresh.
Seite 67 - Happy the home where prayer is heard, And praise is wont to rise ; Where parents love the sacred word, And live but for the skies.
Seite 67 - HAPPY the home, when God is there, And love fills every breast ; Where one their wish, and one their prayer, And one their heavenly rest. 2 Happy the home where Jesus' name Is sweet to every ear ; Where children early lisp his fame, And parents hold him dear.
