The self-same words that angels hymned
Fall softly on our listening ears!

And guides the feet of those who haste
Where, lowly like star misplaced,
The Babe is seen.
Echoes the ring of generous mirth
where loving ones meet round the board,
And SPARKLING eyes make glad taescarth,
Ard hearts beat in accord.
Heap high the rousing, cracking fire
That cleaves the gloOm-a golden spire!
Wen laugh to scorn the north winds ire,
AT Christmas time! e4
Echoes-oh, may we heed it still
The cry of homeless, weary ones
Who beg the streets, while piercing chill
The white storm whirls and moans,
When the gaunt wolf, Winter, crouches near,
Think of the lives so sad and drear;
Oh, to the endless cry give ear
's' ~ For Christ's dear saker'
Echoes of those who dream alone,
or Christmas Days long, long ago.
When love and beauty round them shone
Amid the pearly snow.
oh. still in dreams of dear delight,
Though summer days have taken flight
And dark forebodings I'LL the night
May joy be theirsl
Echoes from yonder sweeping seas,
Where the swift petrol hears the cry
OF wrecked men in their agonies,
And storm-wrack blots the sky! '"
Gods pity for the ills that be! .t -
Save those who brave for us the sea!
SO may we utter prayerfully,

Oh, gentle hearts who fondly meet!
Oh, bells with ever Weakening chime,
Bring us your message sweet!
