Above All Be Much In Secret Prayer

If Life Be Long, I Will Be Glad, Tthat I May Long Obey; If Short, Yet Why Should I Be Sad, To Soar To Endless Day?

That Which Once Was, Will Be No More. Yesterday Will Never Come Again. To-day Is Passing, And Will Not Return. You May Work While It Is Day; But When You Have Lost That Day, It Will Not Return For You To Work In. While Your Candle Burns, You May Make Use Of Its Light, But When It Is Done, It Is Too Late To Use It.

A Man Pleaser Cannot Be True To God, Because He Is A Servant To The Enemies Of His Service; The Wind Of A Man's Mouth Will Drive Him About As The Chaff, From Any Duty, And To Any Sin.
