Classic Poem

1. O God, I cried, no dark disguise Can e'er hereafter hide from me
2. Thou canst not move across the grass But my quick eyes will see thee pass,
4. The world stands out on either side, No wider than the heart is wide;
Thy radiant identity, Thy radiant identity!
Nor speak, however silently, But my hushed voice will answer thee.
Above the world is stretched the sky, No higher than the soul is high.
3. I know the path that tells the way Through the cool eve of every day.
5. The heart can push the sky and land Farther away on either hand;
God, I can push the grass apart And lay my finger on thy heart.
The soul can split the sky in two, And let the face of God shine through.
