“
Blue thou art, intensely blue; Flower, whence came thy dazzling hue?
— James Montgomery
Blue thou art, intensely blue; Flower, whence came thy dazzling hue?
Nature's prime favourites were the Pelicans;High-fed, long-lived, and sociable and free.
Nimbly they seized and secreted their prey,Till evening roused them to the chase again.
The nursery of brooding Pelicans,The abodes of happy millions, were no more.
Hymns should have unity,graduation and mutual dependence in the thoughts,a conscious progress,a sense of completeness..and be easily understood.
When to the cross I turn my eyes,I must remember Thee.
Baptize the nations! far and nigh,Till every people call Him Lord.
