WITH BEST
WISHES
FOR THE
NEW YEAR
 

[image of cross] Faith grapsed the                      
Cross and cried
Here is my trust,
In nought beside;
[image of anchor] Hope joined in                      
Full accord;
And sweetly sang
of Heaven's reward;
[image of heart] Charity greatest of                      
The three
Smiling said
"Come follow me"
