In the beginning God, eternal Mind,
with His own Word His boundless realm defined.
The one benevolent circle of His wing,
enfolding everyone and everything,
arches about His works, below, above,
with His protecting Father-Mother Love.
Thus man, unfallen, upright, free, is shown
receiving and imparting good alone,
for Alpha and Omega meet and blend.
In God there is no point at which to end.
