Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Dear Old Father
For this child's sake, and for the sake of my beloved, the Mother, I will be strong to endure and to work, in the days that are to come. I will keep my hands clean, and my heart pure, that I may ascend the hill of life and stand in its holy places.
In this new Earth which the Lord has spread about me like a cloud, I see many children. Some have eyes full of light, and some have tears on their young faces, and shadows upon their hearts. But all are the sons and daughters of Jehovah, and because I am a Father, I must serve with patience, and with labor, to clear away the briars from the paths where their tender feet must walk.
I will pray for them also, that the sun may shine on their way; that the gates of plenty may stand ajar for them; that the golden bowl of health may be full, like the pool in the valley where ?ow the waters from springs hidden in the heart of the bill; that the fountains of use fulness may be unsealed for them, and their hearts filled with joy in their work; that every evening they may lie down in the green pastures beside the still waters, where the Angel of the Lord will watch over them until the morning comes.
