Wit and Wisdom of Jesus (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from The Wit and Wisdom of Jesus Behold the man! Behold the God! Ah, which to say, and how, and why! In vain our tangled reasons try The path so many feet have trod. O man of sorrows, man of joy! - Of joy for all thy strife and scars, - Whereso thou art among the stars, In peace that nothing can destroy, - Though we our voices may not blend With that hoarse chant the centuries raise, Yet is it not a sweeter praise To say, "Our brother and our friend"? And if beyond this verge of time We know thee better as thou art, Wilt thou not clasp us heart to heart, As fills our ears the heavenly chime? - John W. Chadwick.
