Christ and Christmas verses
Christ and Cristmas glossary
  The Word Christ Christianity Divine Science
The Word 4. What the Beloved knew and taught,
Science repeats,
Through understanding, dearly sought,
With fierce heart-beats;
8. Christ was not crucified--that doom
Was Jesus' part;
For Sharon's rose must bud and bloom
In human heart.*
** "God was manifest in the flesh." -- St. Paul.
12. For Christian Science brings to view
The great I Am,--
Omniscient power,--gleaming through
Mind, mother, man.
16. And he that overcometh, and keepeth my
works unto the end, to him will I give
power over the nations:
And I will give him the MORNING STAR.
--Christ Jesus.
Christ 3. The Christ-idea, God anoints--
Of Truth and Life;
The Way in Science He appoints,
That stills all strife.
7. Yet wherefore signalize the birth
Of him ne'er born?
What can rehearse the glorious worth
Of his high morn?
11. The Way, the Truth, the Life--His word--
Are here, and now
Christ's silent healing, heaven heard,
Crowns the pale brow.
15. No blight, no broken wing, no moan,
Truth's fane can dim;
Eternal swells Christ's music-tone,
In heaven's hymn.
Christianity 2. In tender mercy, Spirit sped
A loyal ray
To rouse the living, wake the dead,
And point the Way--
6. For heaven's Christus, earthly Eves,
By Adam bid,
Make merriment on Christmas eves,
O'er babe and crib.
10. Thus olden faith's pale star now blends
In seven-hued white!
Life, without birth and without end,
Emitting light!
14. To-day, as oft, away from sin
Christ summons thee!
Truth pleads to-night: Just take Me in!
No mass for Me!
Christian
Science
1. Fast circling on, from zone to zone,--
Bright, blest, afar,--
O'er the grim night of chaos shone
One lone, brave star.
5. Thus Christ, eternal and divine,
To celebrate
As Truth demands,--this living Vine
ye demonstrate.
9. Forever present, bounteous, free,
Christ comes in gloom;
And aye, with grace towards you and me,
For health makes room.
13. As in blest Palestina's hour,
So in our age,
'T is the same hand unfolds His power,
And writes the page.
