When, marshalcd on the nightly plain,
The glittcring host bestud the sky,
One star alone OF all the train
Can fix the sinners wandering eye.
Hark bark, to God the chorus breaks
From every host, from every gem!
But one alone the Saviour speaks;
1t is the Star Of Bethlehem.
Once on the raging seas ] rode;
The storm was loud, the night was dark.
The ocean yawned, and rudely blowed
The wind that tossed my laundering bark.
Deep horror then my yitals froze;
Death struck, ! ceased the tide to stem,
When suddenly star arose;
1t was the Star of Bethlehem.
1t was my guide my light, my all;

And through the storm and dangers thral

THE GOLDEN RULE WAY.


Come, let us be happy together,
For where there's will there's a way :"
The heart will be light as a feather
If maXims SO easy hold sway.
First, pack up store of contentment;
Who knows not the way is a Ounce
If wrong'd never dream of resentment
Get rid Of such folly at once.
Be kind-it's the way to meet kindness
If not, what's the use of regret?
Rail not at the world for its blindness,
But pity, forgive and forget.
Our old friends no doubt will be true friends
The longer; then love them the more;
But shut not your heart against new friends
Though one be but true in a score.
Prize INN you have proved as jewel
With which it were madness to part;
Who would codly throw by the fuel
That keeps up the warmth of the heart?
Of true souls how good the communion
Throughout the WIDE world as we roam
TO preserve the strong chain of union,
Let us rivet the fond links at home
