I have great pleasure in sending you an original stanza for the Easter! Book you are preparing.

The book will certainly be beautiful, and it is an honor to be associated with Dr. MacArthur and with the men and women whom you mention. The world is poorer now that dear Dr. Cuyler has gone to his

reward. I am glad you have the strong

They saw His glory, and the two men that stood with Him. And it came to pass, as they were parting from Him, Peter said unto Jesus, Master, it is good for us to be here. Luke 9:32, 33.

Not always on the mount may we
Wrapt in the heavenly vision be,
The shores of thought and feeling know
The spirit's tidal ebb and flow.

The mount for vision but below
The paths of daily duty go,

And nobler life therein shall own

The pattern on the mountain shown.
-Frederick L. Hosmer.

EN are by the alchemy of God's grace literally transformed in our day. They are not simply translated from the kingdom of darkness into the kingdom of God's dear Son, but they are literally transformed in character. Along the whole line of the Christian church we see evidences of the transforming power of God's grace in rescuing great sinners and in making them great saints. All about us are living witnesses of God's transforming power manifested in this way. Miracles more wonderful than any performed by Christ during His earthly life, are performed by Him to-day in the moral lives of men. There are about us now men whose faces are like that of Moses, because they are living with Christ and thus gaining His image. There are men and women now who dwell on the mount of Transfiguration and whose faces glow with heavenly splendors. O blessed light which comes to us from contemplating Christ!

As the hart panteth after the water brooks: so panteth my soul after Thee, O God. My soul thirsteth for God, for the living God: when shall I come and appear before God? Amen. Ps. 42: 1, 2.
