1
Lo, earth arrays herself in beauty,
And folds her wintry robes away,
Her veins with vernal life are throbbing,
'Tis Nature’s glorious New Year’s day.
Glad day on which the Lord of glory,
Rose from the tomb where once He lay
And made the Eastertide forever
Redemption’s sacred New Year’s day.
Type of our spirit’s resurrection,
Sweet Eastertide to us, thou art,
Thou bringeth us the ne I creation,
The precious New Year ;of the heart.
Bright foretaste of that fighter morning
When all the saints shall reach their home,
O glorious day, we haste thy dawning,
Glad New Year of the Age to Come!
Sweet Eastertide, we to meet thee,
We hail thy dawning bright and clear!
Oh, lift us to the heavenly places;
And bring us all a glad New Year!

Able”; “Be Known To Us”; “The Wesley Grace”; “ ’Tis Midnight - ;
“In The Cross of Christ I Glory”; "O Love Divine, What Hast Tho*
Done”; “Lord, I Am Thine”; "Sweet the Moments, Rich In Blessing - ;
"O Come and Mourn with Me Awhile”; and “Behold the Savior F
Mankind".
The service itself is divided into four
II | sections: The Lord’s Supper; The Garde*
( \ I of Gethsemane; The Adoration at the*
\ I Cross; and The Words of Jesus as He hung:
\ y I upon the Cross. The service ends with

said “will approve his initial state

high and efficient plane.’ There
is no other department more im
portant to all citizens in protect
ion of life and property—He can
be expected to devote full time to
making the department as effec
tive as limitations on personnel
and equipment will permit.”
Col. Trotter, a LaGrange attor
ney and former state senator, who
resigned his Georgia House seat
|as Troup County representative to
become safety director, already is
putting his reorganization plans
jinto effect. His first official act
[ was to realign patrol headquar
