Who formed the countless worlds on high,

Who gave to them their speed,

Who keeps them all within their bounds,

Who guides each fiery steed;

Who plans for them their distances,

Moves them in mighty space,

Revealing wisdom and not chance;—

Whose hand but God’s there trace?

For what seems chance at simple gaze

The impress bears of thought,

When studied close in all their ways

Worlds cannot spring from naught.
