THE BUILDERS
Reading edition
"The house is not for me, it is for Him. His Royal thoughts require many a stair, Many a tower, many an outlook fair, Of which I have no thought, and need no care. Where I am most perplexed, it may be there Thou makest a secret chamber holy—dim, Where Thou wilt come to help my deepest prayer."
George Macdonald.
"Toil, workman, toil; thy gracious Lord Will give thee soon a full reward; Then toil, obedient to His word, Until He come. Sing, pilgrim, sing; Christ's mighty Hand Will bring thee safe to that bright land; Then sing—it is thy Lord's command— Until He come."
Anon.
