Athwart the sky the great sun sails, / Through aeons thus, the daylight trails, / And man, living breath of the sod / Beholding, in his heart knows God.
Throughout the night's long brooding deep, / Earth's trustful children die-to-sleep, / But with the whisperings of morn / Awake, unto the day, new-born.
The mystery of earth untold, / The great infinite, none behold, / Forge ever new the spiral chain, / Revolving man to God again.
