If life be long I will be glad,  That I may long obey; If short--yet why should I be sad  To soar to endless day? Christ leads me through no darker rooms  Than He went through before; He that unto God's kingdom comes,  Must enter by this door. Come, Lord, when grace has made me meet  Thy blessed face to see; For if Thy work on earth be sweet,  What will Thy glory be! Then shall I end my sad complaints,  And weary, sinful days; And join with the triumphant saints,  To sing Jehovah's praise. My knowledge of that life is small,  The eye of faith is dim; But 'tis enough that Christ knows all,  And I shall be with him.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7724</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Our fruitless labours mourn, And only rich in barren fame return. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23940]]></link><description><![CDATA[Our fruitless labours mourn, And only rich in barren fame return.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23940</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Our government teaches the whole people by its example.

This method, though it seem such a small circumstance of life, would in all probability be a means of great piety. It would keep it constantly in your head, that softness and idleness were to be avoided, that self-denial was a part of Christianity... It would teach you to exercise power over yourself, and make you able by degrees to renounce other pleasures and tempers that war against the soul.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7180</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A few days ago some thought they were going to wipe us off the map.
