Above thy deep and dreamless sleep   The silent stars go by: Yet in thy dark streets shineth   The everlasting Light; The hopes and fears of all the years   Are met in thee tonight. For Christ is born of Mary;   And gathered all above, While mortals sleep, the angels keep   Their watch of wondering love. O morning stars together   Proclaim the holy birth; And praises sing to God the King,   And peace to men on earth. How silently, how silently,   The wondrous gift is giv'n! So God imparts to human hearts   The blessings of His Heav'n. No ear may hear His coming,   But in this world of sin, Where meek souls will receive Him still,   The dear Christ enters in. O holy Child of Bethlehem,   Descend to us, we pray, Cast out our sins, and enter in,   Be born in us today. We hear the Christmas angels   The great glad tidings tell; O come to us, abide with us,   Our Lord Emmanuel.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7557</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[But what is your duty?

The "joy" that was set before Jesus was, we feel, knowing of the riches which would come to his brethren out of his death. In short, we are his joy, set before him when on the cross. As we have seen, only as the circle of the love of Jesus becomes world wide and as big as history will it be complete.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6209</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[...we see that there are two different kinds of...societies: (a) parasitic societies and (b) producing societies.

Were they awe-stricken by creation? They beheld it confessing Christ as Lord. Did their minds tend to regard men as gods? The uniqueness of the Savior's works marked Him, alone of men, as Son of God. Were they drawn to evil spirits? They saw them driven out by the Lord, and learned that the Word of God alone was God and that the evil spirits were not gods at all. Were they inclined to hero-worship and the cult of the dead? Then the fact that the Savior had risen from the dead showed them how false these other deities were, and that the Word of the Father is the one true Lord, the Lord even of death. For this reason was He both born and manifested as Man, for this He died and rose, in order that, eclipsing by His works all other human deeds, He might recall man from all the paths of error to know the Father. As He says Himself, "I came to seek and to save that which was lost.".]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8189</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Those accused have the right to know who the court members are.
