THE PLACE OF POWER.
There is a place where thou canst
touch the eyes
Of blinded men to Instant perfect
sight;
There is a place where thou canst say
"Arise"
To dying captives bound in chains
of might;
There is a place where thou canst
reach the store
Of hoarded gold and free it for the
Lord ;
There is place upon some distant
shore
Where thou canst send the worker
or the word.
There is a place where God's resist
less power
Responsive moves to thine insistent
plea.
There is a place ? a simple trusting
place ?
Where God Himself descends and
fights for thee,
Where is that blessed place? Dost
thou ask where?
O soul, it is the secret place of
prayer.
We judge ourselves by what we feel
capable of doing, while others Judge
us by what we have already done.
The Holman
Gem Testament
recently issued, bids fair to rival the
Vest Pocket Edition 'of which over
a million copies are in circulation)
in popularity.
Although printed from larger type, it
measures 3H x 4H inches, and the
Special Ladies' Edition on India paper
is only inch thick, including covers.
It is the only Testament of its
size with either Self-Pronouncing
text or bold type.
