Alternate Author Name(s): Cayzer, Charles
Subject(s): Graves; Jesus Christ; Religious Education; Tombs; Tombstones; Sunday Schools; Yeshivas; Parochial Schools
His Life and Teaching cannot be in vain,
Since no Philosophy the World hath seen
Can heal and succour, lighten and sustain,
Like that of Jesus Christ, the Nazarene,
The Guide of Guides when Doubt's dark days convene!
And in the lonely passage of the tomb
What hand like His to lead us thro' the gloom?
