Additional quotes by Reginald Heber

Brightest and best of the sons of the morning,
Dawn on our darkness, and lend us thine aid.
Star of the east the horizon adorning,
Guide where our infant Redeemer is laid.

We deny our Lord whenever, like Demas, we through love of this present world forsake the course of duty which Christ has plainly pointed out to us.

No hammers fell, no ponderous axes rung, Like some tall palm the mystic fabric sprung. Majestic silence. - Reginald Heber
