Classic and Contemporary Poetry

PETITION by WILLIAM ARTHUR DUNKERLEY

First Line: O GRANT ME THIS
Last Line: SO SHALL THE WORK BE BLEST.
Subject(s): RELIGION; THEOLOGY;
O grant me this, --
In all my work,
Lord, of Thy best! --
High thought in true word drest,
To cheer, to lift, --
To comfort the depressed, --
To lighten darkness, --
To bring rest
To souls distrest.
In all my work, O manifest
Thy Will!
So shall the work be blest.
