Show THE MAN OF NAZARETH Whatever we think of His light divine, di-vine, For we differ now as then, This heart's confession is yours and mine: "Ho lqved his fellow men.' The sweep of centuries cannot dim Tho light of his steadfast love. . Through all the ages tho llfo of him Shall shine as the stars above. A guide to follow In worldly things Through tho clamorous throngs of greed, Tho thought for tho fellow man that sings Of love ns tho only creed. And tho selfish life in the busy mart Of tho struggling world's demesne AV1U pause and study tho perfect heart Of the lowly Nazarene. Will pause and study and learn this truth In the race for power and pelf: There's something better in age and vouth Than tho single thought of self. Tho wealth that tinsels your earthly aim, Tho honor that seems so fair, For you, my brother, and mo the .same,' In the end will not bo there. Tho end -must como with the parting breath, And neither power nor gold In tho long, deep solitude ot death Can tho frozen hand infold. Whatever we think of his light divine, di-vine, Since ever the world began This heart's confession Is youre and mine That ho was the perfect man. Chicago Interocean |
