When faith is true
‘Tis not for you to stand and ask it why
Or measure out in your balances
The weight of by and by
You may stand mute
While others choose to praise the stars above
But none dispute the desert of a life lived without love
When faith is true it will not stand in straight and serried tanks
There is no number for the ways
The faithful offer thanks
You may stand mute
While others choose to praise the stars above
But none dispute the desert of a life lived without love
When faith is pure
‘Tis folly then
To stand and ask it how
No length nor breadth
Nor height nor depth to the wonder that is now
You may stand mute while other choose to praise the stars above
But none dispute the desert of a life lived without love
By phospher shells and human bombs
Our broken children cry
While beneath bells in cathedral tombs
The old crusaders lie
You may stand mute
While other choose the praise the stars above
But none dispute the desert of a life lived without love
