The first Bethlehem echoed with the angel's song, ‘Glory to God in the Highest'; the second Bethle- hem, the Bethlehem of Paul's heart and ours, is to echo eternally with a | glorious song of joy in heaven over a sinner that repenteth, over a soul made luminous and resplendent with Christ’s glory.” tomorrow's services at 12:30 Thomas F.
