God will surely know His own:—
Pagan, Papist, Protestant.
BY MANY PATHS.
By many names the one true God is known;
By many shrines man’s faith in Him is shown;—
Varuna, Vishnu, Agni, Indra,—One!
As stars confess the all-sustaining sun.
By many paths true, humble hearts are brought
At last to Him whom they in darkness sought.
All lands alike the Father’s mercies share;
