FATHER in Heaven! humbly before thee Kneeling in prayer thy children appear; We in our weakness, we in our blindness, Thou in thy wisdom, hear us, oh hear! God watching o'er us sleeps not nor slumbers, Faithful night watches his angels keep. Through all the darkness, unto the dawning, To his beloved he giveth sleep. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...THE BOUGH OF NONSENSE by ROBERT RANKE GRAVES SONNET by MICHELANGELO BUONARROTI THE FAMILY MAN by JOHN GODFREY SAXE SILEX SCINTIALLANS: THEY ARE ALL GONE by HENRY VAUGHAN THE UNIVERSAL MOTHER by SABINE BARING-GOULD |
