Science is making us wonder wander,
Wander far and wide;
And know, by this time,
Our face we ought to hide.

Some day, the mountain shall wither,
While the valleys get flooded with fire;
Or men shall be driven like horses,
And stamper, like beasts, in the mire.

And we say, “The earth was thrown from the sun,”
Or, “Evolution made us come to be
And we come from the lowest of beasts,
Or one step back, the ape and monkey.”

Our minds are thinking of science,
And science is in our ears;
Our eyes are seeing science
And science is in our fears.

Yes, we’re wandering away from the Lord our God,
Away from the Holy One;
But now we cannot help it,
For it is already done.
