SONGS OF THE SOUL
SILENCE
The earth, the planets play
In and through the sun-born rays
In majesty profound.
Umpire Time
In silence sublime
Doth watch
This cosmic match.
In and through the sun-born rays
In majesty profound.
Umpire Time
In silence sublime
Doth watch
This cosmic match.
The Author of the great game
Assumes no spoken name;—
With boundless poise
He doth His will without a noise,
Ungrateful moods ignoring,
Unkindness all forgiving.
Assumes no spoken name;—
With boundless poise
He doth His will without a noise,
Ungrateful moods ignoring,
Unkindness all forgiving.
Truth clearly speaks to all,
But speaks not loud;
They hear its call
Who noises enthrall.
But speaks not loud;
They hear its call
Who noises enthrall.
[ 68 ]
