O THAT THE SORROWFUL JOY by FREDERICK WILLIAM HENRY MYERS

First Line: O that the sorrowful joy, that the fears and the tumult of loving
Last Line: All that could never be told, God, let me tell it to Thee!
Subject(s): PRAYER;

O that the sorrowful joy, that the fears and the tumult of loving
All could have vent in the one passionate sigh of a prayer!
All that my tongue could pronounce, that my eyes and my tears could betoken,
All that could never be told, God, let me tell it to Thee!
