AD ASTRA: 169, by                    
First Line: For what avail these conflicts dire of creed
Last Line: And in men's hearts the lamp of faith renew?
Alternate Author Name(s): Cayzer, Charles
Subject(s): Faith; God; Religion; Belief; Creed; Theology


For what avail these conflicts dire of creed,
When, 'mid divisions that have rent the Church,
Our Faith is jeopardized in very deed,
While they are many who God's Word besmirch?
Ignoble strife! will none redeem the search
For all that is most beautiful and true,
And in men's hearts the Lamp of Faith renew?
