what then...
That cause can never be lost nor stayedwhich takes the course of what God has made
and is not trusting in walls and towers
but slowly growing from seeds to flowers
Each noble service that has been wrought
was first conceived as a fruitful thought
each worthy cause with a future glorious
by quietly growing becomes victorious
Thereby itself like a tree it shows
that high it reaches, as deep it grows
and when the storms are its branches shaking
it deeper root in the soil is taking
Be then no more by a storm dismayed
for by it the full grown seeds are laid
and though the tree by its might it shatters
what then, if thousands of seeds it scatters?
