CHORUSES FROM “THE ROCK”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The endless cycle of idea and action, Endless invention, endless experiment,
Knowledge of speech, but not of silence;
Brings knowledge of motion, but not of stillness;
Knowledge of words, and ignorance of the Word.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Eagle soars in the summit of Heaven,\u00a0
The Hunter with his dogs pursues his circuit.
O perpetual revolution of configured stars,\u00a0
O perpetual recurrence of determined seasons,\u00a0
O world of spring and autumn, birth and dying!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Where is the wisdom we have lost in knowledge?
Where is the knowledge we have lost in information?
The cycles of Heaven in twenty centuries
Bring us farther from God and nearer to the Dust.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

All our knowledge brings us nearer to our ignorance,\u00a0
All our ignorance brings us nearer to death,\u00a0
But nearness to death no nearer to GOD.
Where is the Life we have lost in living?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
