Races and peoples, lo, we stand divided,  And, sharing not our griefs, no joy can share;  By wars and tumults love is mocked, derided  His conquering cross no kingdom wills to bear. Envious of heart, blind-eyed, with tongues confounded, Nation by nation still goes unforgiven, In wrath and fear, by jealousies surrounded,  Building proud towers which shall not reach to heaven. Lust of possession worketh desolations;  There is no meekness in the sons of earth;  Led by no star, the rulers of the nations  Still fail to bring us to the blissful birth: How shall we love Thee, holy hidden Being,  If we love not the world which Thou hast made?  O give us brother-love for better seeing  Thy Word made flesh, and in a manger laid.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6918</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[My mom FedExes a red velvet cake she makes from scratch to me every birthday. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66387]]></link><description><![CDATA[My mom FedExes a red velvet cake she makes from scratch to me every birthday.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66387</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If [it] yields to the drift of the age and surrenders its hold of the awful but glorious individualism of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6447]]></link><description><![CDATA[If [it] yields to the drift of the age and surrenders its hold of the awful but glorious individualism of the Christian salvation,... the Church itself will not be much enriched by an accession of panic-stricken fugitives from a Personal God.
