SACRED POETRY.

THE PASTOR'S HELPMATE.

"Wherefore goest thou also with us? make thee go up and down with us? mercy and truth be with thee."

Surely in what place [my lord the King] shall be, whether in death or life, even there also will [thy servant] be."

WHY wouldst thou come with me, sweet friend?

Why wish my thorny path to share?

Thou know'st what way my steps I bend,

Through many a tangled care.

Thou seest the sorrow and the strife,

The awe that haunts a pastor's life:

And wouldst thou seek to be his wife?
Ah, gentle friend, forbear.

The world is all before thee spread;

Choose where thou mayst far happier prove,
Lest vain regret succeed, in stead

Of unadvised love.

It is not good that thou be mine;
Freely can I the hope resign.
Return-and may all grace divine
Shower on thee from above.

Seeing I go where best I may,
Mercy and truth be with thee still.
Let me not cloud thy youthful day
With many a needless ill.

No-though thou liest near my heart,
"Twere best, methinks, at once to part
From God's high altar, lest I start,
Nor all my charge fulfil.

"O, speak not thus-my choice is made.
I will not turn-my lot is cast.

On me thy burden shall be laid-
"Twill bind me but more fast.

Through health or sickness, weal or woe,
Through life and death, with thee I go,
Companion of thy way below,

Found faithful to the last."

НОРЕ

TELL me, where doth Hope abide ?

On a sunbeam doth she ride,

From the smile of ocean glancing?
Or upon the shadowy green,
Where the fairy rings are seen,

In a stream of moonlight dancing?

VOL. XIII.-March, 1838.

2 L

Dwells she where, with master voice,
The statesman guides the senate's choice;
In whose heart high thoughts are burning,
While he views, with watchful eye,
The storm of faction sweeping by,

And his country's peace returning?

Lights she on the warrior's crest,
To soothe his hour of broken rest

On the anxious eve of battle;
Waving her laurels, glossy green,
Above his fancy's bloody scene,

Till he burns to hear "war's rattle?"

Doth she, in a book-piled cell,
With the pale-eyed student dwell,

Poring upon lamp-lit pages,

Panting for a deathless name,
Trumpeted by growing fame,

'Mid "sacred bards," or learned sages?

Hovering o'er the giddy mast,
As the tempest whistles past,

Cheers she the seaman's wave-tost pillow,
While through scud and flashing foam
His good ship keeps her course for home,
And bravely breasts the surging billow?

Or, as the ploughman o'er his land
Scatters the seed with careful hand,

Is Hope his weary steps beguiling;
As Fancy shews the summer plain
A waving sea of golden grain-

Rich fields, with peace and plenty smiling?

No, these are not the hopes for me,

In war or peace, by land or sea;

They but betray the souls that hearken!

A breath can ruffle Ocean's face,

A mist the brightest sun disgrace,

A cloud the sweetest moonlight darken.

The worn-out statesman finds too late
His faithless party's envious hate,

His deep-laid plans by folly blasted;
The banished conqueror's daily theme
Treason and blood, his nightly dream

Is plundered towns and countries wasted.

The wanton critic's jest severe,
The world's neglect or idle sneer,
Quenches the student's gentle spirit,
And, like a taper's quivering light
In the rude breath of wintry night,
Sinks the fond hope of modest merit.

On some lone island doomed to die,
The sailor strains his fading eye,

From morn to eve, in sickening sadness;-
He leaps, he shouts, he screams aloud !

Is it a sail?-some floating cloud,

Or white-capped surge, but mocks his madness.
The winter's flood, the vernal worm,
The summer blight, the harvest storm,

Beset the peasant's anxious morrow;
Or, if the genial season smiles,
The midnight blaze his hope beguiles,
And he must pine in want and sorrow.

No, these are not the hopes for me

Resting on earth, and skies, and sea,

Which chance may blight, and death must sever!
Upborne with wings of faith and love,
Hope finds a resting place above,

On the Redeemer's cross, for ever.

No treasons tempt that peaceful reign;
That warfare's crown no slaughters stain;
That study wins a wreath immortal :

Safe is the haven of that rest;

That harvest of the faithful blest;

That Hope guides man to heaven's high portal.

HYMN FROM BUNSEN'S GESANG-UND-GEBET-BUCH.

"Lord, now lettest thou thy servant depart in peace for mine eyes have seen thy salvation."

No. 140. p. 73.

ACCORDING to thy will I part
From hence in peace:

Thankful, relying, calm, my heart
Waits its release:

For, as God hath promis'd me,
Death but a rest of peace can be.

Jesus, the Saviour, God's true Son,
This work hath wrought:

Him thou to me, O Lord, hast shewn ;
And thou hast taught,

That in need, and at the grave,

He, the true Well of Life, can save.

Him in thy mercy hast thou given,
O Lord, to all;

Το

open wide the gates of heaven,
To send a call,

By his saving word of grace
Borne to all men, in every place.

He on the heathen world hath shone
A guiding light;

Leading to fields they had not known

Far from their night;

He is glory, joy, salvation,
To Israel, thy chosen nation.

MARTIN LUTher.
