TRUTH'S GLORIOUS STAR

DAVID E. ANTHONY.

Bright star of Truth, which pierced Judea's nightAnd over Bethlehem shed thy silvery lightUpon the manger where the Christ-child lay,Today we see thy beauteous rays again,And hear hosannas and the glad amen,And view the light which heralded that day.
Poem

GOD DIRECTS

Whether the flower grow fast or slow,Whether the rain be fallingOr on its petals the sunbeams glowWhen the south wind is calling;Whether the dew bathe its tender face,Or a chill breeze be blowing,Through a divine, eternal graceGod hath directed its growing.

"HE THAT KEEPETH ISRAEL"

WHEN under bright'ning morning skiesTo its day's work the city wakes,And men to all their problems rise,Yet know the Love that ever makesLife's burdens light and strength supplies,There sounds o'er many a busy streetAnd all the human toil above,The chime of bells whose music sweetA message brings of peace and love.
