A CHRISTMAS PRAYER.
O’er Bethlehem’s sky Thy splendour spread, And shepherds sought Thy lowly bed! Oh, Son of God, Come Thou again And speak Thy peace, To hearts of men! Chain warring demons, roaming wild, And prove that Thou art Bethlehem's child! Oh, Son of God, In might arise, And speak Thy peace From storm-swept >kies! The travail-pain of all the years Is holding womanhood in tears! Oh, Son of God, Speed Thou the birth — Peace unto men O'er all the earth ! —Mrs J. P. Nye. Shenandoah, lowa, U.S.A., December, 1914.
