LOSS AND GAIN
“Behold Thy Mother! 'Tis the loss
Of heaven, the load of shame,
The sweat of agony, the cross,
That ratifies thy claim.”
Of heaven, the load of shame,
The sweat of agony, the cross,
That ratifies thy claim.”
He heard; and for the tender name,
A Babe to Bethlehem He came.
A Babe to Bethlehem He came.
