28 LITTLE ANN. [28 “ I find I am a great sinner, sir.” “ Who told you that you are a great sinner ?” “ Nobody, sir, told me so.” “ How, then, my child, did you find it out ?” “ By prayer, sir.” “ Have you loved the Bible 1” “ Yes, sir.” “ And do you think, my dear, that you have gained any knowledge of its contents 1” “ Yes, sir.” “ How, my child, did you gain that knowledge ?” “ When I opened the Bible, sir, I prayed to God to give me an understanding heart.” “ Have you ever received any instruction or comfort from reading hymns 1” “ Yes, sir.” “ Tell me which have refreshed and instructed you most.” “ This is one, sir.” Jesus, my all, to heaven is gone, He, whom I fix my hopes upon; The track I see, and I’ll pursue The narrow way, till him I view The way the holy prophets went— The road that leads from banishment— The.King’s highway of holiness— I’ll go—for all his paths are peace.
