WHITENESS most white. Ah to be clean again In mine own sight and God's most holy sight! To reach thro' any flood or fire of pain Whiteness most white: To learn to hate the wrong and love the right Even while I walk thro' shadows that are vain, Descending thro' vain shadows into night. Lord, not to-day: yet some day bliss for bane Give me, for mortal frailty give me might, Give innocence for guilt, and for my stain Whiteness most white. |
