Let earth receive her King; Let every heart prepare him room,  And heav'n and nature sing. Joy to the earth! the Savior reigns!  Let men their songs employ, While fields and floods, rocks, hills, and plains,  Repeat the sounding joy. No more let sins and sorrows grow,  Nor thorns infest the ground; He comes to make his blessings flow  Far as the curse is found. He rules the world with truth and grace,  And makes the nations prove The glories of his righteousness,  And wonders of his love.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6681</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's the heart afraid of breaking that never learns to dance.

The good I have is from His stores supplied, The ill is only what He deems the best; He for my friend, I'm rich with naught beside, And poor without Him, though of all possessed; Changes may come, I take or I resign Content, while I am His, and He is mine. Whate'er may change, in Him no change is seen, A glorious Sun that wanes not nor declines; Above the storms and clouds He walks serene, And on His people's inward darkness shines; All may depart: I fret not, nor repine, While I my Saviours am, while He is mine. While here, alas! I know but half His love, But half discern Him, and but half adore; But when I meet Him in the realms above I hope to love him better, praise Him more, And feel, and tell, amid the choir divine, How fully I am His, and He is mine.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6807</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[While a lot of African Americans and Latinos may have negative perceptions about the military, they can still identify with ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39206]]></link><description><![CDATA[While a lot of African Americans and Latinos may have negative perceptions about the military, they can still identify with the strength of the soldier.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39206</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I believe that any man's life will be filled with constant and unexpected encouragement, if he makes up his mind ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13773]]></link><description><![CDATA[I believe that any man's life will be filled with constant and unexpected encouragement, if he makes up his mind to do his level best each day, and as nearly as possible reaching the high water mark of pure and useful living.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13773</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This is not a letter but my arms around you for a brief moment ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19927]]></link><description><![CDATA[This is not a letter but my arms around you for a brief moment]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19927</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is being looked at.
