TITLES OF CHRIST: THE PRINCE OF PEACE by FRANCES RIDLEY HAVERGAL

First Line: O NAME OF BEAUTY AND OF CALM
Last Line: WHOSE REIGN WITHIN THY HEART SHALL EVERMORE INCREASE.
Subject(s): CHRISTMAS; NATIVITY, THE;
O NAME of beauty and of calm!
O Name of rest and balm,
Of exquisite delight,
And yet of sovereignty and might!
Let it make music in thy heart to-day,
And bid thee go rejoicing on thy way;
For Jesus is thy Peace, thy Prince of Peace,
Whose reign within thy heart shall evermore increase.
