Excerpt: ... Say, shall we yield him, in costly devotion, Odors of Edom and offerings divine? Gems of the mountain, and pearls of the ocean, Myrrh from the forest, or gold from the mine? Vainly we offer each ample oblation, Vainly with gold would his favors secure j Richer by far is the hearts adoration, Dearer to God are tbe prayers of the poor. 8 & 7s M. 40. Oawood. Christ's Advent. Hark! what mean those heavenly voices Sweetly sounding through the skies? Lo! the angelic host rejoices; Heavenly hallelujahs rise! Listen to the wondrous story, Which they chant in hymns of joy; Glory in the highest, glory! Glory be to God on high! Peace on earth, in all its blessings, Peace on earth, good will to man! God in mercy never ceasing, Here unveils his gracious plan. Holy Father! we adore thee! Be thy grace forever nigh; Till in heaven we sing before thee, Glory be to God on high. I M-41. bowriho. Jesus preaching the Gospel. How sweetly flowed the Gospel's sound From lips of gentleness and grace, When listening thousands gathered round, And joy and reverence filled the place! From heaven he came, of heaven he spoke, To heaven he led his followers' way; Dark clouds of gloomy night he broke, Unveiling an immortal day.

The Good Shepherd and his Flock. Green pastures and clear streams, Freedom and quiet rest, Christ's flock enjoy, beneath his beams, Or in his shadow, blest. The wounded and the weak, He comforts, heals, and binds; The lost he came from heaven to seek, And saves them when he finds. Conflicts and trials done, His glory they behold, Where Jesus and his flock are one, One Shepherd and one fold. 6fc4aH. ±O...
