Pence and Good viii.

ny MISS Il. NJ HA1NEs.
IT'S peace that the angels sing over the newborn
King;
Peace in the midst of strife ruling this earthly life;
clean from the heavenly light shining DER sins
dark night;
Peace at Chrst's birth,
Peace to the shepherds near, trembling with holy
fear;
Peace in the guiding star leading the wise men far;
Song of eternal love echoed from courts abovei
Peace on the earth.
Good will in this life of care Jesus to share,
Good will to the listening throng, seeking escape
from wrong;
Fastening their ills to bring pleading their suffering;
Good will to each cry.
Good will to the Pharisee boastng his high degrees
Good will to the scornful soul yielding to sins con
troll
Sorrow for sinners fate love for their sinful hate
Good will from on high
It's peace on the troubled sea- calm waters at
Galilee;
Peace to his chidrens fear when their Lord stand
eth near;
Trust in his ready hand soothing waves at com.
Peace to each call.
Peace where Christs home may be, blessings on
Bethany;
Peace to the impending grief, bringing swift relief;
Life to the dead given, sent by the Lord of
Peace over all.
Good will to the accusing throng, urging Christs
steps along;
Good will to the dying thief pleading his late belief
Patience toward those that wound love where
deep wrongs abound
Good will to each foe.
God rv, ,,bop tho Naster cries offering his sac.
rfce.
Rebels of right to wn Father. forgive their sin y
Love at Saviors DEATH love in his latest breath
Good will here below
There's peace in the falling snow
As it silently comes down,
Now lost in the rivers flow,
Now covering the hilltops brown.
There's peace in the forest trees
As they gracefully point to the skies,
Now murmuring in the breeze,
Now clad in winters disguise.
There's peace at the twilight hour,
As fair Nature is seeking her rest,
And draws, in her nightly bower,
Star coverlets over her breast,
There's peace the Sabbath morn,
As the weekly cares are laid by
And restfulness greets the dawn
That brightens the eastern sky.
There's peace to the troubled soul
That by and sin is oppressed;
When, yielding to wisdom's CONTROL
1t there finds the promised rest
Peace leave with you" How sweet
Is the music of Jesus voice,
when travelling lifes pathway meet
The Friend we have made our choice.
Good will like an angel of light
That has come from the glory above,
Now scatters radiance bright
Ger all who accept of Chrst's love.
The lesson she teaches to
Tells of kindness, forbearance and right,
Bids Charity's messengers reign
Aud marshal their armies of light.
She teaches the true soul to bear
The sore burdens another may feel;
LIES pleasures with others to share
The worldwide relation to seal.
She teaches forgiveness for wrong,
"Yea, till seventy times forgive"
Our Savior bore enmity long.
And died that each sinner might live.
Yes, Jesus has brought to peace,
And " such peace as the world can not give"
Good will through his name shall Increase
Till all shall his mercy receive.
Peace and good will the song Christmas chimes pro-
long;
Rest for the weary soul fleeing from sins CONTROL
Treasures of richest grace found in this resting
place
At Jesus feet.
Hope of intending peace where all earths shall
cease;
Song Of unceasng JOY pleasures without alloy;
Smiles from the eternal throne, peace and good
will alone.
True souls to greet.
North Hampton, n. H., December, 1890.
