THE FIRST
0 little tnivn of Bethlehem,
How still we see thee lie!
Above thy deep and dreamlcss sleep
The silent stars go by;
Yet in thy 'lark street, shlneth-
The eyerlasting Light;
The hopes mul fours of all the years
Are met in thcc to-night.
For Christ is born of Mary; And, gathered all above,
,while mortals sleep. the nnsels keep Their watch of wondering love.
_O morning stars, together
Proclaim the holy birth,
And praises sing to God the King
And peace to men on earth.
How silently, how silently,

CHRISTMAS.
The wondrous Gift is givenl
_So Gwi imparts to human hearts The blessings of His heaven,
No ear may bear his coming; But in this world of sin,
Where uzeck souls will receive Him
still V
The dear Christ enltrs in.
0 Holy Child of liethlcllsm, Descrnd to us, wc pray;
Cast out our sill, and enter in;
Ile born in us toiiny,
We hear the Christmas angels
The great, glad tidings tell;
0 come to us, abide with ul,
Our Lord Immanuel.
