THE NEW DAY
Heaven from the hopeless doubter
The true believer makes;
Against the darkness outer
The light God's likeness takes.
Like the pale, cold moon above her
With its heart of the heart of fire,
My Love is the one true lover,
And hers is the soul of desire.
AFTER-SONG
Through love to light! O, wonderful the way
That leads from darkness to the perfect day!
From darkness and from sorrow of the night
To morning that comes singing o'er the sea.
Through love to light! Through light, O God, to Thee,
Who art the love of love, the eternal light of light!
