STOOD UPON THE .MOUNTAIN
TOP."
The following verses were com
posed by Rev. W. B. Slgnor, Thurs
day afternoon, May 4, on the top of
Sugar Loaf mountain, directly in
tronc or the parsonage at Orson.
One of 'the grandest views to be ob
tained in Northeastern Pennsylvania
can bo had from the summit of this
mountain. It was while the writer
was on the heights and beholding
the wonderful view that the follow
ing verses came to him:
-f I stood upon tho mountain top, -f
And viewed the landscape o'er;
4- It .seemed that I was near to
heaven, -f
f Nearer than e'er before. -f
I saw the lakes; I saw the -f
streams; -f
I saw God's land so fair; -f
-f And when I looked to the skies -f
above.
I knelt in humble. prayer.
And prayed that
God would
-r touch
f The hearts of sinners far
near.
and
And bring them to the Savior's -f
fold, -f
The fold He loves so dear. -f
-t- It seemed I heard a voice from -f
heaven, -f
-f A voice so sweet and low; -f
f 'Methought it trembled on the
air. -f
"My child, I'd have it so." -
"But there are foearts whose -f
doors -f
Are closed and will not hear -f
-f the call; -f
-r t noy do not care that I hava tho
-f cross,
-f Nor drank the bttter gall. -f
"Their eyes are blind, thev do
-f not see -f
-f The awfulness of sin; -f
t- ineir ears are deaf, thev do not
f hear --
-f The knock, and let mo In."
I looked again, the scene was -f
changed;
Tho throne seemed to appear; -f
Tho good, tho bad, wore gath- -f
ored there. -f
I thought I saw tho tears, -f
T
Flow down the cheeks of Jesus, -f
-r uod's only begotten Son: -f
And then I knew full well
The judgment had begun. -t-
-t- i can't describe tho awful -f
scene; -f
Tho books were open wide; -f
-f Then God came forth and took -f
a seat -f
lose to the Savior's side. -f
The sinners heard their awful -f
doom. -f
f "Depart I know you not." -f
f And then He turned to the -f
-r righteous, -f
Who had a different lot.
f The voice was clear, the smile -f
so sweet; -f
'T was the voice of God's own -f
Son, -f
" Come yo blessed of my -f
Father":
f " Well done, dear ones, well -f
A- done." -f
