The end of the future is far away;
Forever’s a long, long time–
And though insignificant, every day
Is part of the cosmic climb.
So, even a comparatively little hour
May share in the scheme of things,
And a part of a second contain the power
We need for awakenings.
An age in the distance may build on today–
The present is something sublime.
The end of the future is far away;
Forever’s a long, long time.
