The Living God Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDEFEFGG| There is no death with Thee each plant and tree | A |
| In living haste their stems push onward still | B |
| The pointed blade each rooted trunk we see | A |
| In various movement all attest thy will | B |
| The vine must die when its long race is run | C |
| The tree must fall when it no more can rise | D |
| The worm has at its root his task begun | C |
| And hour by hour his steady labor plies | D |
| Nor man can pause but in thy will must grow | E |
| And as his roots within more deep extend | F |
| He shall o'er sons of sons his branches throw | E |
| And to the latest born his shadows lend | F |
| Nor know in thee disease nor length of days | G |
| But lift his head forever in thy praise | G |
