Our Life is Hid with Christ in God

Colossians 3:3
by George Herbert

Our life is hid with Christ in God

My words and thoughts do both express this notion,
That Life hath with the sun a double motion.
This first Is straight, and our diurnal friend,
The other Hid and doth obliquely bend.
One life is wrapped In flesh, and tends to earth:
The other winds towards Him, whose happy birth
Taught me to live here so, That still one eye:
Should aim and shoot at that which Is on high:
Quitting with daily labour all My pleasure
To gain at harvest an eternal Treasure.

Leon Dabo, Moon on the Water, 1907
