INTERCEDING by OPAL LEONORE GIBBS

First Line: I DREAMED THE SAVIOUR CAME TO BE
Last Line: EVERY DAY.
Subject(s): JESUS CHRIST; PRAYER;
I dreamed the Saviour came to be
My Guest awhile;
My home was hallowed by His word,
His gracious smile.
At evening in the chamber there
He went alone;
I listened breathlessly to hear
An undertone
That thrilled my very soul because
It held my name!
Oh, was it all an empty dream?
Nay, just the same
As if within that little room
I heard Him pray,
He brings my need before the Father
Every day.
