XXIV ALPHA AND OMEGA

XXIV
ALPHA AND OMEGA

He throned her in the gateways of the world,
He 'stablished her on high before the peoples.
He raised her as a watch-tower from the wave,
He built her as a lighthouse on the waters.
He maketh and unmaketh without end,
And He alone, who is first and last, shall judge her.
