But God!can evil live within His sight? Sinless, how must He view the wrack of sin? Shall God be ruled by measure of our Right, Be judged by that diviner Voice within Whence all our thoughts of Holiness begin? Not of ourselves may we foretoken Heaven But only through His grace, so freely given. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...SEVEN STREAMS OF NEVIS by GALWAY KINNELL CHANEL NO. 5 by LAURE-ANNE BOSSELAAR BROTHERS: 4.
