“As a result of scientific man's creativity there arises an ordered, illumined, determined world, imprinted with the stamp of creative intellect, of pure reason and clear cognition. From the midst of the order and lawfulness we hear a new song, the song of the creature to the Creator, the song of the cosmos to its Maker.”

Watching the Hidden Light;

Across the heads of the throng;
Hearing His faintest whisper
Above earth's loudest song.”
