AD ASTRA: 167 by CHARLES WHITWORTH WYNNE

First Line: THE CHURCH OF CHRIST MUST HEAL THE WORLD'S UNREST
Last Line: THE GLORY AND WONDER OF THIS WORLD'S ROMANCE!
Subject(s): CHRISTIANITY; CHURCHES; LOVE; RELIGION; CATHEDRALS; THEOLOGY;

The Church of Christ must heal the world's unrest,
In Her alone may sustenance be found!—
The Centuries renew their sleepless quest,
And man is treading upon higher ground:
Oh, on the heights may plenteous grace abound!—
Her gift is Peace, and Love that shall enhance
The glory and wonder of this world's romance!
