SONGS OF IMMORTALITY.

323

And across the river, on the other side, they sing a new song. For as surely as if the soul of man is immortal, death hath no dominion over it, and effects no solution of continuity in its existence, so surely, if the Christian creed be true, and truly interpreted, the voice of praise shall renew its strength in other worlds than this.

"I'll praise my Maker with my breath;
And when mine eyes are closed in death,
Praise shall employ my nobler powers:
My day of praise shall ne'er be past,
While life and thought and being last,

Or IMMORTALITY endures."
