TREMBLING before Thee we fall down to adore Thee, Shamefaced and trembling we lift our eyes to Thee: O First and with the last! annul our ruined past, Rebuild us to Thy glory, set us free From sin and from sorrow to fall down and worship Thee. Full of pity view us, stretch Thy sceptre to us, Bid us live that we may give ourselves to Thee: O faithful Lord and true! stand up for us and do, Make us lovely, make us new, set us free -- Heart and soul and spirit -- to bring all and worship Thee. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...THE MARRIAGE OF HEAVEN AND HELL by WILLIAM BLAKE THE INCOGNITA OF RAPHAEL by WILLIAM ALLEN BUTLER THE PLANTATION CHILD'S LULLABY by PAUL LAURENCE DUNBAR HIS SAVIOURS WORDS, GOING TO THE CROSSE by ROBERT HERRICK SONNET TO MRS.
