An earthly tree a heavenly fruit it bear, A case of clay contained a crown immortal. A crown of crowns, a King whose coSt and care Redeemed poor man, whose race before was thrall To death, to doom, to pains of everlaSting, By His sweet death, scorns, Stripes, and often faSting.

For lo! this day, the birth day, day of days, Summons our songs to give Him laud and praise.  Style.display='';$(this).getParent().Style.display='none';">less
