The enterprise is exploration into God

The enterprise is exploration into God

From "A sleep of prisoners" by Christopher Fry


The human heart can go the lengths of God.
Dark and cold we may be,
but this Is no winter now.

The frozen misery of centuries breaks,
cracks, begins to move;
The thunder is the thunder of the floes,
The thaw, the flood, the upstart Spring.

Thank God our time is now

when wrong Comes up to face us till we take
The longest stride of soul men ever took.
Affairs are now soul size.

The enterprise is exploration into God.
Where are you making for?

It takes so many thousand years to wake,
But will you wake for pity's sake!

by Christopher Fry

QUOTE:

This play was on Broadway in the early 50's, I think it's visionary, especially for that time. I saw it then and I know it helped wake me up to how activism can change your attitude to be optimistic in dark times - that was theMcCarthy era, a fearful time and very hard to describe except that the fears gripping people now seem similar. Actually they are parallel, and not the same. UNQUOTE
