THE BREAKING OF CHAIN8.
Between- the ringing of hells and the
musical clang of chimes
1 hear a sound like the breaking of
chains, all thro' these Christmas
times.
For the thought of the world Is waking
out of a slumber deep and long,
And thp race Is beginning to under*
stand lion- Right can master
. Wrong.
And the eyes of the world are opening
-wide, and great are the truths
they see;
And the heart of the world Is 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 so strong that the fetters
forged for a million years must
break.
Fetters of superstitious fear hare
bound the race to creeds
That hindered the upward march of
man to the larger faith he needs.
Fetters of greed and pride have made
the race bow down to kings;
But the pompous 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
the "vested power of Ood.”
The race no longer bends beneath the
And the need of the world and the wish
o( the world and the song of the
world I hear.
All thro' the clanging and clashing of
bells-, this Christmas time o’ the
year;
And I hear a sound like the breaking
of chains, and It sssms to say to
tne.
In the voice of one who spoke of old,
“The truth shall make men free.'*
