McGuffey's Eclectic Primer

Lesson Lii.

Lord smile joys tears nigh morn griefs woes stars say

When the stars, at set of sun, Watch you from on high; When the light of morn has come, Think the Lord is nigh

All you do, and all you say, He can see and hear; When you work and when you play, Think the Lord is near.

All your joys and griefs he knows, Sees each smile and tear; When to him you tell your woes, Know the Lord will hear
