AD ASTRA: 159 by CHARLES WHITWORTH WYNNE

First Line: BUT LIVE THE CHRIST-LIKE LIFE, AND THOU SHALT KNOW
Last Line: TILL DISBELIEF A DOUBT OF DOUBT BETRAYS!
Subject(s): GOD; RELIGION; THEOLOGY;

But @3live@1 the Christ-like life, and thou shalt know
"Whether the doctrine be of God or not"—
What simpler mandate could our Lord bestow?
How doth it lighten our poor human lot!
How soon are all our doubts and fears forgot!
For God reveals Himself in many ways,
Till Disbelief a doubt of Doubt betrays!
