Changing
For we have thought the longer thoughts
And trod the road to stray.
And we have sung the songs of hill,
Then uttered words of fray;
But to Him we owe these lives we owed
Now it's time to lay
A glowing candle in shadowed path
And humbled our knees to pray.
"For we have thought the longer thoughts "
the first line of the poem "Chapter Heading"
by Ernest Hemingway
