290 THE WHALE. 



Christ Loved in Life a Rock and Refuge hi Death. 



CHRIST held thee* in his powerful hand ; 



Now, every foe and fear subdued, 

 THY FEET DO PRESS THE SHINING LAND 



BEYOND DEATH'S NARROW FLOOD ! 



* To the American consul of Trinidad de Cuba, where he had been 

 settled as a physician, he spake the precious words, a day or two before 

 his death on shipboard, " I wish you to understand, my faith is strong in 

 Christ, my Redeemer."
