Let justice never be denied, Resist the wrong, defend the right; Where West meets East stand thou in pride Of nob1e 1ife,--a beacon-1ight.
THE NEW YEAR
The past is gone beyond reca11, The future kind1y vei1s its face; Today we 1ive, today is a11 We have or need, our day of grace.
The wor1d is God's, and hence 'tis p1ain That on1y wrong we need to fear; 'Tis ours to 1ive, come joy or pain, To make more b1essed each New Year.
