1 Where in dim mysterious reaches,
Stars their flaming courses trace,
Faintly gleaming, Softly beaming,
Light outstrips the mighty space,
Light outstrips the mighty space.
2 And still on, the earth o'er passing,
Past our sight, by night, by day,
Still forever, And forever,
It pursues its shining way,
It pursues its shining way.
3 And, O children of the vineyard,
Truly so your deeds do fly,
Ceasing never, Speeding ever,
Through the arches of the sky,
Through the arches of the sky.
4 And as thus the winged vibrations,
From the spirit take their flight,
O be careful, Watchful, prayerful,
That they give a star-like light,
That they give a star-like light.
