OH Thou whom neither time nor space Can circle in, unseen, unknown, Nor faith in boldest flight can trace, Save through Thy Spirit and Thy Son! And Thou that from Thy bright abode, To us in mortal weakness shown, Didst graft the manhood into God, Eternal, co-eternal Son! And Thou, whose unction from on high By comfort, light, and love is known! Who, with the parent Deity, Dread Spirit! art for ever one! Great First and Last! Thy blessing give! And grant us faith, Thy gift alone, To love and praise Thee while we live, And do whate'er Thou wouldst have done! | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...THE ANNIVERSARY [ANNIVERSARIE] by JOHN DONNE FABLE: 16 by ANTOINE VINCENT ARNAULT THE LANGUAGE OF THE EYES by EDWARD GEORGE EARLE LYTTON BULWER-LYTTON ON THE LAKE OF WINDEMERE by ELIZABETH COBBOLD HOURS by EDOUARD JOACHIM CORBIERE ANSWER TO DUNBAR'S 'AFTER A VISIT' by JOSEPH SEAMON COTTER SR. |
