A NEW YEARS PRAYER.

Its walls are dim and low,
l know little temple,
Yet up and down its darkened aisles
The blessed angels go.
And he who keeps the temple
Should pray 10 God tonight
That faith may light the altar flame
And hope may keep il bright,
That love may bring the sacrifice
Which love delights to give.
And all the angels innocent
May larry there to live.
And may no evil spirit
Have in It place or part.
What is this temple beautiful?
The temple Of the heart.
