KNOWLEDGE by THEODOSIA (PICKERING) GARRISON

First Line: BECAUSE SHE STEPPED INTO MY HEART ONE DAY
Last Line: WHEN THE WELL BELOVED HAS GONE.
Subject(s): FRIENDSHIP;

BECAUSE she stepped into my heart one day,
Where never a step before might win,
I know what grace fills an empty place
When the Well Beloved comes in.

Because she went out from my heart one day,
I know as never another one,
The lonely gloom of a crowded room
When the Well Beloved has gone.
