For ever and for evermore,

The Star, the Star of Bethlehem!

Besides this delightful hymn, with its graphic sea-faring metaphors, two others, at least, of the same boy-poet hold their place in many of the church and chapel collections:

The Lord our God is clothed with might,

The winds obey His will;

He speaks, and in his heavenly height

The rolling sun stands still.

And—

Oft in danger, oft in woe,

Onward, Christians, onward go.
