CONTEMPLATION, by                    
First Line: A mountain
Last Line: The saviour mild.
Subject(s): Jesus Christ


A mountain
Reaching to the sky,
Contemplating
Him on high --

Gray clouds
Passing swiftly on,
Behold Him
In the sun.

We mortals
Living here below,
Feel His presence
Faith bestow.

Day by day
In the seething crowd,
He calls to us
Out loud.

Would we know Him,
Fall humbly at His feet,
If He pass'd us
In the street?

Then hearken
To the hungry child;
It may be
The Saviour mild.
