    (continued from previous page)
    Directs them as they raise on high
    A temple to the Lord
    VI
    And there it stood for centuries
    And there it stands to day
    As witness to a well-kept vow
    And Gods mysterious way
    Of dealing with his creatures
    To work his glory's end
    In ways so full of mystery
    We fail to comprehend.
