"THESE THREE"

A STAR leant down and laid a silver handOn the pale brow of death;Before it roll'd black shadows from the land—That star was Faith!Across fierce storms that hid the mountains farIn funeral cope,Piercing the black there sailed a throbbing star—The star was Hope!From God's vast palm a large sun grandly rolled,O'er land and sea;Its core of fire, its stretching hands of gold—Large Charity!

A STAR leant down and laid a silver hand

On the pale brow of death;

Before it roll'd black shadows from the land—

That star was Faith!

Across fierce storms that hid the mountains farIn funeral cope,Piercing the black there sailed a throbbing star—The star was Hope!

Across fierce storms that hid the mountains far

In funeral cope,

Piercing the black there sailed a throbbing star—

The star was Hope!

From God's vast palm a large sun grandly rolled,O'er land and sea;Its core of fire, its stretching hands of gold—Large Charity!

From God's vast palm a large sun grandly rolled,

O'er land and sea;

Its core of fire, its stretching hands of gold—

Large Charity!
