■•Peace and light he shall he to men;
To men the living bread."
In the little town of I’.etiilehein
So quiet, so still, so low.
Christ was boi'ii in a man.yer
Clion the stabh; tioor.
In cpiest of the Holy Cliild.
Wise .Men came from afar.
The.v knew the Savior had lieen born.
For in tlie East appeai'cd his star.
'■(bi se.arch for the Holy Cliild."
Said Herod to the Wise ,Men thi-ee,
■'And when you have found tin; Habe
Iveturn again to me."
'I'lie Wise' Men followed tlie star,
Wliose light did brighten tiieir way.
Fiitil its I'a.vs fell on Hi'thlehem

\Vitli trembling hands, yet joyful

Fpon their knees they fall:
