First Line: I am tired of city sounds
Last Line: In streets of questing faces!
Subject(s): Religion; Theology


I am tired of city sounds,
And streets of questing faces—
Give me, for a swift, sweet hour,
Little lonely places!

Though I want the city ere
This golden silence passes,
I have loved and looked upon
Sky—and hills—and grasses.

I have walked with God again
In little lonely places ...
I shall find His face again
In streets of questing faces!
