Seite 88 - IN GREEN OLD GARDENS." IN green old gardens, hidden away From sight of revel and sound of strife, Where the bird may sing out his soul ere he dies, Nor fears for the night, so he lives his day ; Where the high red walls, which are growing gray With their lichen and moss embroideries, Seem sadly and sternly to shut out Life, Because it is often as sad as they ; Where even the bee has time to glide...
Seite 293 - Lo, these are parts of his ways: but how little a portion is heard of him? but the thunder of his power who can understand?
Seite 126 - ... filled with the knowledge of his will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding; that ye might walk worthy of the Lord unto all pleasing, being fruitful in every good work, and increasing in the knowledge of God; strengthened with all might, according to his glorious power, unto all patience and longsuffering with joyfulness...
Seite 321 - As every man hath received the gift, even so minister the same one to another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God. " If any man speak, let him speak as the oracles of God; if any man minister, let him do it as of the ability which God giveth: that God in all things may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom be praise and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.
