My Faith is larger than the
Hills –
So when the Hills decay –
My Faith must take the
Purple Wheel
To show the Sun the way –
Hills –
So when the Hills decay –
My Faith must take the
Purple Wheel
To show the Sun the way –
+′Tis first He steps opon the
Vane –
And then – opon the Hill –
And then abroad the
World He go
To do His Golden Will –
And if His Yellow feet should
miss –
The +Bird would not arise –
The Flowers would +slumber on
their Stems –
No Bells have Paradise –
¦
How dare I, therefore, stint
a faith
On which so vast depends –
Lest +Firmament should fail
for me –
The Rivet in the Bands
+ You see + Day + sleep opon –
+Universe – Deity –
Rests at Night
The Sun from shining,
Nature – and some Men –
Rest at Noon – Some Men –
While Nature
And the Sun – go on –
