LORD, I AM FEEBLE AND OF MEAN ACCOUNT by CHRISTINA GEORGINA ROSSETTI

Poet Analysis

Last Line: Of aught beside wherein to sink or mount
Subject(s): PRAYER; GOD; WEAKNESS;

Lord, I am feeble and of mean account:
Thou Who dost condescend as well as mount,
Stoop Thou Thyself to me
And grant me grace to hear and see.

Lord, if Thou grant me grace to hear and see
Thy very Self Who stoopest thus to me.
I make but slight account
Of aught beside wherein to sink or mount.
