The Divine Image

To Mercy, Pity, Peace and Love

All pray in their distress;

And to these virtues of delight

Return their thankfulness.

For Mercy, Pity, Peace and Love

Is God our father dear,

And Mercy, Pity, Peace and Love

Is Man, his child and care.

For Mercy has a human heart,

Pity a human face,

And Love, the human form divine

Love, Mercy, Pity, Peace

And all must love the human form,

In heathen, turk, or jew;

Where Mercy, Love & Pity dwell

There God is dwelling too.
