Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCD EFGFCHCH IJIJBKBK| The Sun has come again and fed | A |
| The lily's lamp with light | B |
| And raised from dust a rose rich red | A |
| And a little star flower white | B |
| He also guards the Pleiades | C |
| And holds his planets true | D |
| But we we know not which of these | C |
| The easier task to do | D |
| - | |
| But since from heaven he stoops to breathe | E |
| A flower to balmy air | F |
| Surely our lives are not beneath | G |
| The kindness of his care | F |
| And as he guides the blade that gropes | C |
| Up from the barren sod | H |
| So from the ashes of our hopes | C |
| Will beauty grow toward God | H |
| - | |
| Whate'er thy name O Soul of Life | I |
| We know but that thou art | J |
| Thou seest through all our waste of strife | I |
| One groping human heart | J |
| Weary of words and broken sight | B |
| But moved with deep accord | K |
| To worship where thy lilies light | B |
| The altar of its Lord | K |
