AD ASTRA: 177, by                    
First Line: Arise, o lord! And let not man prevail
Last Line: Ere they presume upon thy truth again!
Alternate Author Name(s): Cayzer, Charles
Subject(s): Nations; Prayer


Arise, O Lord! and let not man prevail,
Let not his arrogance go unreproved!
Put him in fear that so he cannot fail
To know Thy promises are not removed,
That 'neath Wide Wings Thou shelterest Thy beloved.
O teach the Nations that they are but men
Ere they presume upon Thy Truth again!
