I wonder who split up the day,

Into hours of dark and hours of light?

Or who apportioned minutes, pray?

With seconds to shorten day or night.

SUNDIAL ON ST. MARY’S CHURCH, DITCHINGHAM, NORFOLK.

Who murmurs at our God’s decree,

Forgets His love divine,

How that He cares for all we see,

And calls us “children mine.”
