Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Phantasmagorian Theology and Other Things The Divide There is, beyond the Great Divide, A land with hills and valleys wide, And meadows soft and low; A gracious land, where spirits sing The glories of a mighty King, And crystal rivers flow. ´Tis but a dream of endless gain That God has painted on the brain, And mortals, dreaming, wed To Christ, and feel that God is near, And listen, as they dream, to hear The sandals of the dead. Why is the trusting heart afraid? And why the human soul dismayed When angry waves do wear Our names from out the sands - and Fate, The warder of a common gate, In silence waits us there? Across the range the lamps are out; The stars are hid, and all about A something seems to say: "Oh feet a-weary! why toil on? Oh life a-dreary, almost gone, There is no shining way." But strew all doubt before the wind For just to-day, and let us find A gleaming diadem, To crown our faith - for dim eyes fail - And with the lowly shepherds hail The Star of Bethlehem. Dear home beyond the Great Divide! Though I but walk where ills betide, My soul is saved and free From that dark thought that death is doom, Nor shall I sink to Godless gloom - My soul is stayed on Thee.
