AD ASTRA: 97 by CHARLES WHITWORTH WYNNE

First Line: ARE THERE NOT SIGNS THAT GOD STILL LOVETH THEM?
Last Line: WITH DAWNING GREATNESS OF THE JEWISH NAME!
Subject(s): GOD; JERUSALEM; JEWS; JUDAISM;

Are there not signs that God still loveth them?
Still guideth them? still strengtheneth their hands?
While stone by stone the New Jerusalem
Is rising 'mid the wreck of other lands—
For as their Wealth, so too their Power expands—
From East to West the sky is all aflame
With dawning greatness of the Jewish name!
