STAR OF BETHLEHEM.
Brighter than the rising day
When the sun in glory shines,
' Brighter than the diamond's ray
Sparkling in (Jolconda's roim;s,
Beaming through the clouds of wo,
Smile in mercy 's diadem,
Brighter on the wrortd below,
The Slur that rose in Bethlehem.
f
When our eyes aredimmM with tears,
This can light them up again ;
Sveet as music to our ears
Faintly warbling o'er the plain.
iNercrr khihes a ray so bright
From the purest earthly gem,
O ! their is no soothing light
Lake the Sur ol Bethlehem.
Grief dark cloud imy 'round us roll,
Etery hettrt may sink in wo,
Oloujiy conscience rack the soul
And sorrow' tears in torrents iow ;
bull ihroa.'h air these clouds an J sturms
Shine this purest heav'nly gem,
. vVilh a ray that kindly varnii
The Star that lose iu Bethlehem
j
When we cross the roaring wave
That rolls on life's remotest shore,
U hen we look into the grave
And wandrr through, this world no more;
Thii the lamp, whose genial rav,
Like some brigiuiy glowing gem,
l'ini lo man Ins darkling way
The Mar thai roe iu Bethlehem.
Let the world be sunk in sorrow,
JNui an eve be chamvd or Licit ;
,Ve see a fair to-morrow .
-Smiling in the rosy west;
Fur tliis beacoii Hope displays,
Tor in Mercy' diadem
Shines with Faith's serenest rays
The Mr that rose in Bethlehem.
RmUifurthe Heart $the Understanding,
O son of nature I let self culture be
The object ol thy earliest toils : as yet
Ihy lamp ourus bright thy day shines
fclonouily,
Thou canst not labour when thy sun is set
A -.Kit thou the Unseen Spirit see:
Fit know to learn thyself; and He
ill then he shadowed forth in thee .'
Gd is a spiiit through creation's whole,
A in this mortal tenement the soul.
, The sun that gives the world its fairest
b'ght '
Is net yon orb welcomed by the morning
! , hour,
And by the eve expelled ; it is the power
Of an enlightening conscience pure and
bright
Mai k here thou standest first : & whence
thou'rt come,
And whether goest, and straight speed
thee home.
The woe to come, the woe that's gone,
Phttoophy tainks calmly on :
L'ut shmr me the Philosopher
Who calmly bears the uots that are.
I lo w ise is he who marks the fleeting day
; Iy acts of virtue as i( rolls aw ay I
Be all thy views right forward, clear, and
even:
The sfraightest line the soonest leads to
Heaven.
; Thou wouldst count all thing?, proud

Loses her sweetest charms and stands a
