    Were All

    Were all the tongues of men, those alive and gone and yet to be,
    to unite in a single agreed on "aye"
    and the Lord God to pronounce "nay" that nay would stand from eternity to eternity.
    And were all the tongues of men, those alive and gone and yet to be,
    to unite in a single agreed on "nay"
    and the Lord God to pronounce "aye" that aye would resound through the ages irrevocable, unchangeable.

    Were all the tongues of men, those alive and gone and yet to be,
    to unite in a single agreed on "good"
    and the Lord God to pronounce "evil" that evil would be found in the hearts of all.
    And were all the tongues of men, those alive and gone and yet to be,
    to unite in a single agreed on "evil"
    and the Lord God to pronounce "good" the source of that goodness would be God Himself.

    Were all the tongues of men, those alive and gone and yet to be,
    to unite in a single agreed on "innocent"
    and the Lord God to pronounce "guilty" His judgment would stand and be found righteous and just.
    And were all the tongues of men, those alive and gone and yet to be,
    to unite in a single agreed on "guilty"
    and the Lord God to pronounce "innocent" His judgment would be found flowing from the throne of Grace.

    The true philosopher and the true poet are one, and a beauty, which is truth, and a truth, which is beauty, is the aim of both.

    Ralph Waldo Emerson, American Poet (1803-1882)
