HYMN OF THE PANTHEIST
Wondrous essence, Being's stay,
Light that shineth night and day;
Power that doth all uphold,
Spirit that doth all enfold;
Heart of peace in maddest strife,
Joy of Joy and Life of Life;
Soul of Nature! let me rest
Childlike on thy loving breast,
Shadow me beneath thy wings
From Despair's envenomed stings.
Light that shineth night and day;
Power that doth all uphold,
Spirit that doth all enfold;
Heart of peace in maddest strife,
Joy of Joy and Life of Life;
Soul of Nature! let me rest
Childlike on thy loving breast,
Shadow me beneath thy wings
From Despair's envenomed stings.
Let me, when I wake at morn
Render thanks that I was born;
Let me, ere I sink to rest,
Ever own how much I'm blest;
Let me always grateful be
For the joy I have in Thee!
Ever, ever thank the Power
Gave me such a splendid dower;
All my thoughts thanksgivings be
Till I at last return to Thee!
Render thanks that I was born;
Let me, ere I sink to rest,
Ever own how much I'm blest;
Let me always grateful be
For the joy I have in Thee!
Ever, ever thank the Power
Gave me such a splendid dower;
All my thoughts thanksgivings be
Till I at last return to Thee!
