God moves in a mysterious way, His wonders to perform. He plants his footsteps in the sea, and rides upon the storm.
Absence of occupation is not rest.
Elegant as simplicity, and warm As ecstasy.
But, oh, Thou bounteous Giver of all good, Thou art, of all Thy gifts, Thyself thy crown!
Knowledge is proud that it knows so much; wisdom is humble that it knows no more.
A self-made man? Yes, and one who worships his creator.
