FEED MY SHEEP.

By S. O. James

BY S. O. JAMES.
Out of thy darkness into his light, (1 Pet. 2: 9.) Out of thy peaceful home into the fight, (Luke 14: 26-33.) Out of the world (its friendship you scorn), Jesus has called you, his truth to adorn. (John 15: 19.) Go, humble shepherd, through heat and cold (John 21: 15.) To feed his dear flock and add to the fold; (Acts 2: 47.) Quick on the water thy precious bread cast, (Eccl. 11: 1.) Loud blow the trump while the foe stands aghast, (Joel 2: 1.) Ne’er be it said of thee, “Nothing but leaves;” (Mark 11: 13.) Bring to the Master a harvest of sheaves. (Ps. 126: 6.) Walk with thy Lord, and his sufferings share; (2 Tim. 2: 12.) With the glory before you they cannot compare. (Rom. 8: 18.) Happy the servant who labors in love, (Heb. 6: 10.) His rest will be sweet in the mansions above. (Heb. 4: 9.)
