A Hymn by Oliver w. Holmes.

The 25th anniversary Of the organixs.
tion Of the Young Mems Christiau
Union was observed In Boston May 80.
A large number Of distinguished peo.
pie were present, among them the ven.
cradle poet, Oliver Wendell Holmes,
who read the following original hymn
composed for the occasion. II preach.
ers and people generally would live the
life Of love set forth In the beautiful
hymn the world would be infinitely
better, and there would be no Dr..
Briggs cases to disturb Christian %.
renity.
Our father while our hearts uulesru
The Creeds that wrong Thy name,
Still let our hallowed altars burn
With faiths undyiDg flame.
Not by the lightning CLEANS Of wrath
Our souls. Thy faith shall see.
Thy star Of love must light the path
That leads to Heaven aud Thee.
Help Us to read our Matters will.
Through ever darkeniug stain
That clouds his sscred image stilI,
And see him once again.
The brother man, the plying friend
Who weeps for human woes.
Whose pleading words Of pardon
blend
With cries ofraging foes.
II mid the gathering storms OF doubt.
Our hearts grow faint aud cold
The strength We cannot live without
Thy love will not with hold.
Our prayers accept, our sins forgive.
Our youthful zeal renew:
Shape for ne holier lives 10 live,
Aud nobler work to do.
