FIUT LUX by JOHN BANISTER TABB

First Line: GIVE US THIS DAY OUR DAILY BREAD,' AND LIGHT
Last Line: FOR, LO! I SEE!
"Give us this day our daily bread," and @3light@1;
For more to me, O Lord, than food is sight:
And I at noon have been
In twilight, where my fellow-men were seen
"As trees" that walked before me. E'en to-day
From time to time there falls upon my way
A feather of the darkness. But again
It passes; and amid the falling rain
Of tears, I lift, O Lord, mine eyes to Thee,
For, lo! I @3See!@1
