4 ~~~ * PASSION WEEK ; Sunday,-The Day of Palms and Praise Behold! He comes o'er Olivet, By people thronged ami pressed! With loud hosannas, thus, they greet The holy, heavenly guest. I With garment Ills Pathway pave Olliers, bring branch and palm ! Mid all together sing with joy The nation's welcome psalm The pharisees, with envy moved Seek to rebuke the crowd; "If these were silent." Jesus said “The stones would cry aloud!'” f And now he weeps.—beholding how The city lies in sin; Knowing destruction waits the bind , Whoso life, love can not win. » His nights' Are spent in Bethany,Where Lazarus abode; What palace shall their portion be Who such sweet friendship showed! Monday. The Day of Authority Passing beside a barren tree Whose limbs bear naught but leaves He speaks the condemnation, laves. Barren of fruit receives The temple courts ho finds are filled With boasts,- or bought or sold;He drives these forth with whip and scorn, — For righteousness is bold. "My Father’s house is meant for prayer Where men say find their God; Aud 10. its sacred rooms aud courts, By feet profane are trod." / Now, lame ami blind, in faith are brought, Each feels Hie healing touch. These glory in the light of day. Those can’t aside the crutch. And little children sing his praise, While common people hear With joy his messages of life,—His words of hope and cheer—A. D.
