THE BREAKING OF CHAINS.
Between the ringing of bells end the
musical clang of chime*
I hear a sound like the breaking of
chains, all thro’ these Christmas
, times,
For the thought of the world la waking
Out of a slumber deep and long,
And the rare la beginning to under
stand how Right can master
. Wrong.
And the eyes of the world are opening
wide, and great are the trutha
they see;
And the heart of the world la singing
a song, and Its burden Is "Be
free!"
Now the thought of the World and the
wish of the world and the song of
the world will make
A force ao strong that the fetters
forged for a million years must
break.
Fetters of superstitious fear have
bound the race to creeds
That hindered the upward march of
man to the larger faith he neyds.
Fetters of greed and pride have made
the race bow down to kings;
But the pompons creed and the costly
throne must yield to simpler
' things.
The thought of the world has climbed
above old paths for centuries
• trod:
And cloth and crown no longer mean
(But stands erect and knows Itself the
' Maker’s first of kin.
pd the need of the world and the wish
of the world and the song of the
world I hear.
\thro’ the clanging and clashing of
bells, this Christmas time o’ the
. year:
11 hear a sound like the breaking
of chains, and It seems to say to
i me,
s voice of one who spoke of old,
, "Tho truth shall ntaks men free.”
