The Eternal One

From the July 1886 issue of The Christian Science Journal

Boston Journal


Oh tell me, man of sacred lore, Where dwells the Being you adore? And where, oh man of thought profound, Where can the Eternal One be found? Throughout the realms of boundless space We seek in vain His dwelling-place. He dwells where'er the beams of light Have pierced the primal gloom of night; Beyond the planet's feeble ray, Beyond the comet's devious way; Where'er, amid the realms afar, Shines light of sun or twinkling star.
