AD ASTRA: 164 by CHARLES WHITWORTH WYNNE

First Line: AND CANST THOU DOUBT THAT CHRIST DOTH SURELY LIVE?
Last Line: THE HARMONY THAT LINKS ALL SENTIENT THINGS.
Subject(s): JESUS CHRIST; RELIGION; THEOLOGY;

And canst thou doubt that Christ doth surely live?
That Sun and Moon and Stars hold Him in awe?
What Mind but of The Highest could conceive
The Cosmic cycle, the Metonic law?
This wondrous world from which our life we draw?
We feel the beat of His o'er-shadowing wings,
The harmony that links all sentient things.
