The North Transept: The Psalms XXVI
From The Cathedral (1838; ed. W. Benham, 1889)
Religion
He sang of the commandments true and just,
Of Him Who rolling stars holds in His hand,
And hearts of men who in His guidance trust ;
He call'd on earth and Heaven, on sea and land,
With Him before th' Eternal throne to stand,
On trees, and brutes, and stars before His throne
To stand, united in fraternal band,
The glories of their common Lord to own,
And sing their great Creator, Three in One.
