SONGS TO A.H.R.: 4. HOW MANY WAYS by CALE YOUNG RICE

First Line: HOW MANY WAYS THE INFINITE HAS
Last Line: WHEREIN IS ALL MY REST.
Subject(s): GOD;
How many ways the Infinite has
Tonight, in earth and sky:
A falling star, a rustling leaf,
The night-wind ebbing by.
How many ways the Infinite has:
A firefly over the lea,
A whippoorwill in the wooded hill,
And your dear love to me.

How many ways the Infinite has:
The moon out of the East;
A cloud that waits her shepherding,
To wander silver-fleeced.
How many ways the Infinite has:
A home-light in the West,
And joy deep-glowing in your eyes,
Wherein is all my rest.
