To let little Harry and Ella go where
They could hear of the Saviour, and his tender care,
Of dear orphan children—the story, to day,
You may read in a book called "A Will and A Way"[1]



MORNING SONG AND MORNING PRAYER.


MOTHER.

Awake, my daughter, come and see
This Robin red-breast on the tree;
      Open your drowsy eyes!
Spring up from bed and see her now,
She's lighting on the highest bough,
      Come quick, before she flies!


LILLIE.

Yes, dear mamma, I see the bird,
And sweeter notes I never heard
      Than she is warbling now;
I hope she will not fly away,
But sit and sing the live-long day,
      On this, her favorite bough.
