There is a happy land, Far, far awfty ; Where saints in glory stand, Bright, bright as day. Oh how they sweetly sing? Worthy is our Saviour Kinj Loud let bis praises ring, •Praise, pi'aiso for aye.

Mary had a f little lamb, Its fleece was white as snow ; And every where that Mai-y went The lamb was sure to go. He foilowedfher to school^one^ day, Which was against the rule — It irmde the children laugh and play To see a lamb at school. 30 I R i M 1- B . So the teacher turned hinioul, But still lie lingered near; And waited patiently about, Till Mary did appear. And then lie ran to her and laid His head upon lie? arm, As if he said, I'm not afraid, You'U keep me from all harm. "I WANT TO B£ AN ANGEL." I want to he an angel, And with the angels stand, A crown upon my forehead, A harp within my hand. There right before the Saviour So glorious and so brigh;,* I'd make the sweetest music, And praise Him day and night I never should he weary, • Nor ever shed a tear ; Nor ever kn.nv a sorrow, ISTor ever feel a fear. But blessed, pure and holy, I'd dwell in Jesus' sighfc, And with ten thousand thousand. Praise Him both day anrt night. DIJBE PRIMER. 31 ■■-+ I know I*in weak and sinful, But Jesus will forgive, For many little Children Have gone to Heaven to live. Dear Saviour, when I languish And lay nic down to die, O send a shining angel To bear me to the sky. there I'll be an angel, And with the angels stand, A crown upon my forehead, A harp within my hand; And there before my Saviour, So glorious and so bright, I'll join the heavenly music, And praise Him da} r and night.
