IN the desert by the bush, Moses to his heart said @3Hush@1. David on his bed did pray; God all night went not away. From his heap of ashes foul Job to God did lift his soul, God came down to see him there, And to answer all his prayer. On a dark hill, in the wind, Jesus did his father find, But while he on earth did fare, Every spot was place of prayer; And where man is any day, God can not be far away. But the place he loveth best, Place where he himself can rest, Where alone he prayer doth seek, Is the spirit of the meek. To the humble God doth come; In his heart he makes his home. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...BITTER-SWEET: CRADLE SONG [OR, BABYHOOD] by JOSIAH GILBERT HOLLAND THE MAGIC MIRROR by HENRY MILLS ALDEN THE ARGONAUTS (ARGONATUICA): REMORSE by APOLLONIUS RHODIUS PSALM 126 by OLD TESTAMENT BIBLE SERVICE by ANNA HEMPSTEAD BRANCH THE ROAD OF SLEEP by ANNA HEMPSTEAD BRANCH |
