Our lights dart here and there, whirl to and fro,
We flash and vanish, we die down and glow;

We give ourselves in silent secret ways,
Spending and spent in silence full of grace;
And thus are made like God, and show His praise.

And God Who poised our weights and weighs our worth
Accepts the worship of our solemn mirth.
