closer to the ideal for which the'

love for hate, forgiveness
vengeance, gentleness for wrath, so
that peace and joy may reign
supreme.
We come to that season when we
reflect upon the things of the past

sun. Our wish is so great that we
hesitate to try and express it to you,
but bringing it down to so many
words, we say. “May peace, happi

Christmas tide and may the light

remembering the teaching of Christ.
