H. JL^ pulse-beat through the centuries, a breath
Between the Starlit hour of His birth
And that Strange darkened hour of His death.
Yet had those years not gone their swift sure way,
Had their significance been lost to men,
There would be darkness in the land today,
No faith would lift, no heart could hope again.
Thank God, thank God for those years’ precious
Store!
Thank God for sparing Him to you, to me,
"Out of the glory that was theirs before
The world was . ., ” and the glory yet to be.
The darkened years for Him, tjiat brought us light;
The weary years for Him, that gave us reSt;
The clamorous years, that we might know the white
High silences of peace within the breaSt
For thirty-three brief years that His feet trod
The earthly roads for us, we thank Thee, God.
