168- And Have the Bright Immensities

Jesus Christ: Resurrection and Ascension

1

  • And have the bright immensities
  • Received our risen Lord,
  • Where light years frame the Pleiades
  • And point Orion's sword?
  • Do flaming suns His footsteps trace
  • Thro' corridors sublime,
  • The Lord of interstellar space
  • And conqueror of time?

2

  • The heav'n that hides Him from our sight
  • Knows neither near nor far;
  • A little candle sheds its light
  • As surely as a star.
  • And where His loving people meet
  • To share the gift divine,
  • There stands He with unhurrying feet;
  • There heav'nly splendors shine.
