So, o'er the hills of life, stormy, forlorn, Out of the cloud and strife sunrise is born; Swift grows the light for us, Ended is night for us,  Soundless and bright for us breaketh God's morn. Hear we no beat of drums, fanfare, nor cry, When Christ the herald comes quietly nigh; Splendor He makes on earth; Color awakes on earth;  Suddenly breaks on earth light from the sky. Bid then farewell to sleep: rise up and run! What though the hill be steep? Strength's in the sun. Now you shall find at last Night's left behind at last,  And for mankind at last, Day has begun!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6679</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There are two sorts of romantics: those who love, and those who love the adventure of loving ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25976]]></link><description><![CDATA[There are two sorts of romantics: those who love, and those who love the adventure of loving]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25976</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If a country is to be corruption free and become a nation of beautiful minds, I strongly feel there are ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66703]]></link><description><![CDATA[If a country is to be corruption free and become a nation of beautiful minds, I strongly feel there are three key societal members who can make a difference.
