“He Walketh by Day” Robert Hillyer I am Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow, The Divine Hidden Soul who created the gods, And who feedeth the blessed. I am the Lord of the Risers from Death. Whose forms are the lamps in the house of the dead, Whose shrine is the earth. When the sky is illuminated with crystals, Then gladden my road and broaden my path And clothed me in light. Keep me safe from the sleeper of darkness, When eventide closeth by the eyes of the god And the door by the wall. In the dawn I have opened the sycamore; My form is the form of all women and men, My spirit is God.
