For the anniversary of the fall of the Wall

[fpb]

Though terrors o'ertake us
We'll not be afraid.
No power can unmake us
Save that which has made.
Nor yet beyond reason
Or hope shall we fall -
All things have their season,
And Mercy crowns all !

Then, doubt not, ye fearful -
The Eternal is King -
Up, heart, and be cheerful,
And lustily sing: -
What chariots, what horses
Against us shall bide
While the Stars in their courses
Do fight on our side ?

(Rudyard Kipling, An Astrologer's Song)
