4 Let us, then, be up and doing,

With a heart for any fate ;
Still achieving, still pursuing,
Learn to labor and to wait.
Longfellow.
184 Christmas.
1 Hark ! what mean those holy voices

Sweetly sounding through the skies ?
Lo ! th' angelic host rejoices :
Heavenly hallelujahs rise.
2 Listen to the wondrous story

Which they chant in hymns of joy ;
"Glory in the highest ; glory,
Glory be to God most high.
3 Christ is born, the great Anointed ;

Heaven and earth his praises sing :
Oh, receive whom God appointed

For your Prophet, Priest and King ! "

John Cawoodt

Daily Consecration,



2 That life I consecrate to thee :

And ever, as the day is bom,
On wings of joy my soul would flee
To thank thee for another mom,—

3 Another day in which to cast

Some silent deed of love abroad.
That, greatening as it journeys past,
May do some earnest work for God.
4 Another day to do, to dare ;

To use anew my growing strength ;
To arm my soul with faith and prayer ;
And so win life and thee at length.
Caroline A. Mason.

The Love of God,



1 O Source divine, and Life of all.
The Fount of being's wondrous sea !
Thy depth would every heart appall.
That saw not Love supreme in thee.
