l saw him when he stood among
The honored great men of his day;
When men thronged round his feet, and
sought
In pageant, pomp and weak display
To give due fame to his high name,
And skyward yelled their fev'rish rage
Proclaiming far and near his worth
AS statesman, orator and sage.
I saw him as he stood above
The rabble on his self-built tower;
When men knew not nor cared to know
How he had builded in that hour
When heart and nerve mortar serve
To rear foundations laid in night
When men saw not the painful hours
Whose labor sought and gained the light.
But now he breathed in heav'ns own blue
Above the night, above the jeers
That urged him on when faint and weak
Below the throng he wrought in tears
That throng now stood, beggar brood
And craved to feed upon his word
Like lowly Lazarus at the gate
He knew their hearts and lives. heard
His voice ring out in clearest tones:-
my friends he said, 81 say to you
The cloudless sky has ever been
Shall ever be as now,-sl1y blue.
The sun and moon, the wind and tide
Proclaim that one and one are two"
He paused while all heads low and tall
Approval bowed. Heads black and white
Were nodded each to each as all
Cried out, "Hear! Hear! That's true! He's
right"
Again he spoke,-he said, my friends,
That God created you and me
Is just as true.-Our Father then
He ever has been and shall be;
And friends tits true therefore that you
And I are brothers,-low or high"
A roar of joy went up. They cried,
