He that shuts love out, in turn shall be Shut out from love, and on her threshold lie, Howling in outer darkness.
I falter where I firmly trod, And falling with my weight of cares Upon the great world's altar-stairs That slope thro' darkness up to God, I stretch lame hands of faith, and grope, And gather dust and chaff, and call To what I feel is Lord of all, And faintly trust the larger hope.
And out of darkness came the hands that reach through nature, moulding men.
Ring in the valiant man and free, The larger heart, the kindlier hand; Ring out the darkness of the land; Ring in the Christ that is to be.
A beam in darkness: let it grow.
