If we have not learned that God's in man, / And man in God again; / That to love thy God is to love thy brother, / And to serve the Lord is to serve each other,- / Then Christ was born in vain!
If we have not learned that one man's life / In all men lives again; / That each man's battle, fought alone, / Is won or lost for every one,- / Then Christ hath lived in vain!
If we have not learned that death's no break / In life's unceasing chain; / That the work in one life well begun / In others is finished, by others is done,- / Then Christ hath died in vain!
If we have not learned of immortal life, / And a future free from pain; / The kingdom of God in the heart of man, / And the living world on Heaven's plan,- / Then Christ arose in vain!
