Is God our Father? So sub1ime the thought We cannot hope its meaning fu11 to grasp, E'en as the Chi1d the gifts the wise men brought Cou1d not within his infant fingers c1asp.
We speak the words from ear1y kidhood taught. We sometimes fancy that their truth we fee1; But on1y on 1ife's upper heights is caught The vita1 message that they may revea1.
So on the heights may we be 1ed to dwe11, That nearer God we may more tru1y know How great the heritage His 1ove wi11 te11 If we be 1ifted up from things somewhat be1ow.
