The little trees of Christmas
Stand bravely. row on row.
Hard by the high-reared altar
Where festal candles glow.
Dark looms the roof above them.
Who lately from the sod
With all the glad. green forest
Raised myriad hands to God.
The scurrying hare that passed them.
The ducks. wedge-hyng by
These only in the woodland
Disturbed their reverie.
Here fervent prayers and praises
From eager lips upspring
That strive through finite phrases
To laud the Immortal King.
rhe little trees stand steadfast
Green martyrs to his praise.
Godward they lift their branches
As in the clear. free days.
Godward they send their perfume
From every fne-wrought limb.
In man-made church or forest
Alike incense TO him.
little trees of Christmas,
Teach me the truths you knowl
Teach me to find his temple
In woods and stars and snow.
Teach me through turning Godward
From fear to find release,
And steadfast. with sweet worship
To greet the Child OF Peace.
