God bathes the universe in light,
The greater light to rule the day,
The lesser light to rule the night,
Illuminating all the way:
The day of joyous demonstration,
The night of quiet consecration.
And nightmare dreams of life pass on
Into their own oblivion,
For never was a pathway trod
But designated by our God.
