Of the light which Jesus brought,
Of the freedom and the glory
Which for all the world He wrought
Wherefore, O ye congregation,
Should your hearts be cold and dumb.

While the walls proclaim Salvation,


And, "Arise, thy Light is come."

Listen to the old-new message,


At the Holy Table kneel
Grudge not, when ye leave the Temple,
To diffuse the warmth ye feel.
Life has time enough for sadness.
Clouds too seldom pass away ;
Only love and peace and gladness.

Not here across the snow was heard


The first sweet Cliristmas song;
But where the crimson lilies bloom,
Judaea's hills among:

'Twas sung by countless multitudes


Of Angels pure and bright,
And o'er the bare and silent hills
There shone a glorious light;
Such heavenly music ne'er was heard
Before by sons of men,
And never more shall song like that
Be heard on earth a^ain.

Those

hills where David long before


His father's sheep had kept;
where, o'er Rachel's lonely tomb,
The mourning Jacob wept.

And

We know the tidings

And not by earthly choristers


Was that first carol sung;

which they brought


Of Christ our Saviour's birth,
Their song of "Glory be to God,
Good-will and peace on earth;"
And so the Christmas carol, sung
By Angels long ago,
Is sweeter than all other songs
Wliich Christians sing below.

Not through the temple's shining courts


Its faultless

music rung;

No

listening crowds had gathered there,


That wondrous chant to hear;
Save watchful shepherds on the hills,
No human soul was near.

As they did that Christmas night;
Till my heart was bright with a heavenly flame.

And the lapse of years and the wear of time
Make no change in that heaven of mine.

To have watched my flock by night.
To have seen the wonderful glory shine.

Nor a shepherd my calling be.
For I'm but a sheep, and no shepherd I,
That Jesus must be to me.

To have laid my gift at those tender feet.

And His love shall my carol be.

Trustfully the sages sought Him


When they saw the star arise,

Beaming brightly, beckoning onward,


Moving through the Eastern skies.

And above a lowly stable


Soon it rested, shining clear;
Entering, the wise men foimd Him
In a manger rough and drear.

Precious gifts of gold and spices


From the Orient they brought;
in adoration, bending
To tlie King whose throne they sought.
In no robe of royal purple
Was He clothed, as princes wear,
But in humblest garb, the Saviour
Came our eartlily lot to share.

Low

the wise men brought their treasures,


Offering them on bended knee,
So may we our prayer and praises
Ever offer, Lord, to Thee.
Let us then, with glad Ilosannas,
Sing His praise with sweet accord,
Who was born this day to save us
Jesus, Saviour, Chbist, the Lord.

3 Christ has left His throne of glory,


And a lowly cradle found
Well might angels tell the story,
Well may we their words resound.
Christian children, wake and listen,
Songs are ringing through the earth,
While the stars in heaven glisten,
Hail with joy your Saviour's birth

is this that they are telling.


Singing in the quiet street,
While their voices high are swelling,
What sweet words do they repeat ?
Words to bring us greater gladness.
Though our hearts from cares are free.
Words to chase away our sadness,
Cheerless though our hearts may be.

Of our unshadowed glee.

Sweet herald of good will,
With holy songs of glory
Brings holy gladness stilL
For peace and hope may brighten,
And patient love may glow,
As we listen in the starlight
To the bells across the snow.

'Tis not so very long


Since other voices blended
With the carol and the song.
If we could but hear them singing
As they are singing now,
If we could but see the radiance
Of the crowna on each dear brow

There was a rock-hewn Grave


In Joseph's garden-ground,

Where Christ's dear Body buried lay,


With soldiers watching round.
But ere the dawn was risen
Upon that Easter Morn,
The King of Life had burst His prison
And put His foes to scorn.

And ere the sun was high


On that third happy day,
An Angel bright flew from the sky
And rolled the stone away.

In haste they seek the heavenly Stranger

They find the Babe laid in a manger


With wonder and with awe they fall,
And joyfully adore Him, Lord of all.

Now

The shepherds view the host returning,


Their hearts with holy ardour burning
To Bethelem they wend their way.
Repeating with glad tongues th' angelic lay.

4 This the law our Saviour teaches,


This the call His triumph preaches
Sinner, from the grave of sin
"Rise, eternal joy to win.
From the death our sin decreed us
Sinless He by death has freed us.
Sing we then His victory.

Jesus Christ from death is risen


His Godhead bursts His prison,
rises free

O'er our mortal misery,


And to sinners bring salvation,
Thus in God's humiliation
Man has won the victory.

Mild He lays His glory by,


Born that man no more may die,
Born to raise the sous of earth.
Born to give them second birth.

Light and life to all He brings,

Hail, the Sun of Righteousness


Hail, the heaven-born Prince of Peace

True Sages were they who to Bethlehem led.


For the angels' song at the Birth of Christ
Brought frankincense, myrrh, and gold,
With tidings of joy began
Which they offered to Christ on his manger-bed.
And it rang with a Glory to God in the Highest,
man
With a reverent love untold;

And a
But 'twas winter time for the rich and poor,
Yet 'twas winter time for the rich and poor.
As the Wise Men knelt at Saint Mary^s door.
When the shepherds came to Saint Mary's door.

Cho Yet 'twas winter, etc.
4 So make we our offerings now to Christ's need.
When His poor all around we see:
Inasmuch as to them we have done the deed,
He will say, " Ye have done it to Me:"
'Tis a wintry time for the rich and poor.
Say who shall be driven from a Christian's door?

joyous song once more we bring


song of Spring once more we sing
song of Spring once more we sing
All is bright and cheerful round us
Around the throne of God
Beauteous are the flowers
Bring them to the Master
Come, May, thou lovely lingerer
Come with us, sweet flowers
Coming from the winter
From East and West
Gathered in the House Divine
Go, lovely flowers
Heavenly Father, send Thy blessing
1 hear the children's voices
It is a day of gladness
Little birds are singing

Pansies,

lilies,

roses

Sow ye beside all waters


Summer days once more are coming
The days are gliding swiftly by
The flowers in garden, field and wood
The flowers of Earth are blooming
The Spring-tide hour
The summer days are come again
Voices of children
We bring sweet flowers
