I would fall. Now I do nut know the

Where Christmas Comes From
By T. C. HARBAUGH
From the land of song and story,
Angel-kept and old as Time,
Where the lily in her glory
Reigns the Queen of Judah's clime
From the village of the stranger
Where the infant Saviour lay,
Cradled in an humble manger,
Christmas come3 to us today.
From the fields where grew the flow'r
Where His childhood flitted by,
Where He spent the fated hours
'Neath the burning Orient sky,
And from where the roses scrambled
Over hedge and mossy wall,
Cai-Detmar the paths He rambled,
Clirhtrr.as comes to greet us alL
Kedron still its song 13 sirspn'j
To the far off Orient sea,
And the tuns ft-1 bells are rinsing
In the old year's jubilee;
Children pluck the lily blowing;
On her ever gracefuJ atom,
And the lazy herds are lowing
On the plains of Bethlehem.
V:i-f Je tred the paths of sorrow,
Where H feit the wound of thorn,
Whor" He longed the brighter morrow
Dawns. holy Christmas morn J
- the ger.tle day discloses
Kp.prvr ?ss on laud and sea,

Or? - :l:rzs of Galilee.
