First Line: Beneath the thick but struggling clouds Lyrics: Beneath the thick but struggling clouds, We talk of Christian life; The words of Jesus on our lips, Our hearts with man at strife. Traditions, forms, and selfish aims, Have dimmed the inner light; Have closely veiled the spirit-world And angels from our sight. Strong souls and willing hands we need, Our temple to repair; Remove the gathering dust of years, And show the model fair. We slumber while the present calls, But darkness grows with rest; Wouldst thou see truth? To action wake,— Do the divine behest. Languages: English
