Must last till shies and starlight fade,
Enhancing all the things of life
For human joy and welfare made.
And spreading radiance far and wide
To farthest waste and gteda.

A. word of Christina* children
WRA P up with each Christmas gift
A little sunshine.Xoo.
And then, perhaps, that sunshine
May some day come back to you.
And when you do your shopping,’
And you jostle with the throng.
Though others shove and scold you.
Just pass good cheer along.
For no matter what your station,
Or the sort'of place you live,
The world will seem the brighter
For the smiles that you may give.
Wrap up with each Christmas gift
A little loving thought;
And then, perhaps, you’ll hndsomchovu
A hew world you have wrought.
In the friendlq fold.
And Santa Claus is coming
To see them, as of old
He know* just where to find th< to.
He bring* them golden stare.r
Even to the humble duellings
Of the children of the poos
Listen, little children.
