My Faith is larger than the Hills --

My Faith is larger than the Hills --
So when the Hills decay --
My Faith must take the Purple Wheel
To show the Sun the way --

'Tis first He steps upon the Vane --
And then -- upon the Hill --
And then abroad the World He go
To do His Golden Will --

And if His Yellow feet should miss --
The Bird would not arise --
The Flowers would sleep upon --[^a1]slumber on their Stems --
No Bells have Paradise --

[^a1: sleep upon -- | sleep upon --]

How dare I, therefore, stint a faith
On which so vast depends --
Lest Universe --[^a2]Deity --[^a3]Firmament should fail for me --
The Rivet in the Bands

[^a2: Universe -- | Universe --]

[^a3: Deity -- | Deity --]
