A LITTLE PAGE'S SONG by WILLIAM ALEXANDER PERCY

First Line: GOD'S LARK AT MORNING I WOULD BE
Last Line: AND MAYBE PRAISE!
Subject(s): RELIGION; SPRING; THEOLOGY;

God's lark at morning I would be!
I'd set my heart within a tree
Close to His bed and sing to Him
Right merrily
A sunrise hymn.

At night I'd be God's troubadour!
Beneath His starry walls I'd pour
Across the moat such roundelays
He'd love me sure --
And maybe praise!
