Over and Over Again.

By Allie A. Santee

BY ALLIE A. SANTEE.
Over and over again The pages of life I turn; But the lesson of faith and trust in God I am sometimes slow to learn. I read of a land above Where is never a sigh of pain; And I pray to the Father of truth and love Over and over again.
Over and over again, When the toils of the day are past, I ask myself, Have I lived this day As though it would be my last? Perhaps some wrong I have done; And the memory gives me pain, And I ask the mercy of God's dear Son Over and over again.
Over and over again I seek my Redeemer's face; And I ask that as my needs shall be, So shall be his measure of grace. I ask for light on his word, And that duty be made plain; And I seek the face of my covenant Lord Over and over again.
Over and over again I study and weep and pray; For an awful death of fire and pain Awaits lost souls for aye. Soon will their doom appall; But prayer will then be vain. They will pray for the mountains and rocks to fall, Over and over again.
