January 31
Companions of the Way (Evening)Now hath He reconciled in the body of His flesh through death.
WHO speaketh now of peace? Who seeketh for release?
The Cross is strength, the solemn Cross is gain.
The Cross is Jesus' breast,
Here giveth He the rest
That to His best belov'd doth still remain.
How sweet an ended strife!
How sweet a dawning life!
Here will I lie as one who draws his breath
With ease, and hearken what my Saviour saith
Concerning me; the solemn Cross is gain;
Who willeth now to choose?
Who strives to bind or loose?
Sweet life, sweet death, sweet triumph and sweet pain.
DORA GREEN- WELL
THE ONE RESTING PLACE
