Nature's Temples

By George E. Tack

GEORGE E. TACK
How fair these wondrous temples of our God! And from each gray old column, springing far, Are arches, flashed by rays of sun and star That fall and spread their gold o'er flowering sod; And high above, traced o'er the azure dome, Carved silently by each infinite thought Of the Master-Sculptor who patient wrought, The leaves outspread, and stars illumine night's gloom. And sweet-voiced choristers soft raise a hymn Unto the mighty God, whose tender love Gave each their being, and these temples dim To be their homes in leafy bowers above. God of these beechen temples, great thou art. Accept, I pray, the worship of this heart.
