Faith born of Reverence ever lives and glows—
He that hath seen God's mystic fingers traced
Upon the Hills and their eternal snows,
Will last deny the Presence that hath placed
This little Planet in the boundless waste.
What vails it all our striving and achieving,
If here the soul its last bright web is weaving?
