97. The Human Cry
By Alfred, Lord Tennyson  (1809–1892)
  
HALLOWED be Thy name—Halleluiah!—
Infinite Ideality!
  Immeasurable Reality!
  Infinite Personality!
Hallowed be Thy name—Halleluiah!        5
 
We feel we are nothing—for all is Thou and in Thee;
We feel we are something—that also has come from Thee;
We know we are nothing—but Thou wilt help us to be.
Hallowed be Thy name—Halleluiah!
