  "For in Him we live and move and have our being."—St. Paul GOD and I in space alone And nobody else in view: "And where are the people, oh Lord," I said, "The earth below and the sky o'erhead And the dead whom once I knew?" "That was a dream," the good God said, "A dream that seemed to be true; There are no people living or dead, There is no earth and no sky o'erhead, There is only Myself—and you." "Why do I feel no fear?" I asked, "Meeting you here this way, For I have sinned, I know full well— And is there heaven and is there a hell And is this the judgment day?" "Nay, all are but dreams," the great God said; "Dreams that have ceased to be. There is no such thing as fear or sin, There is no you and never has been— There is nothing at all but Me."—Selected |
