For they and we, in one ion sweet, Together worship at tlie Christ- Child’s feet. They love, and they remember, they are nearer— Nearer now than when they dwelt •on earth, And our communion with them is dearer.—■ Dearer now, than when his Blessed Birth We hailed with handclasp and with greeting word, Warm from the hearts by mutual friendship stirred. Aye, love lives on, just out of sight and hearing, One heart divine is holding us. and them; They have but reached the goal we too are nearing. To be with Christ, the Child of Bethlehem.
