Analysis of I Rummets store Uendelige

Hans Christian Andersen 1805 (Odense) – 1875 (Copenhagen)



I Rummets store Uendelige,
Hvor Sole og Stjerner er kun som Frø,
Der Milliarders umaalte Rige,
Hvor Sjælelivet kan aldrig døe,
Der Visdom og Kjærlighed aabner sin Favn.
Vor Fader! Helliget vorde Dit Navn!
