WORSHIPPERS by JOHN BANISTER TABB

First Line: THE GIFT OF UTTERANCE IS OURS
Last Line: IN LOWLINESS, TO GOD.
Subject(s): WORSHIP;

The gift of utterance is ours,
Love's service to proclaim;
But in the fragrance of the flowers
There breathes a purer flame.
Abiding in their place of birth,
They cleave unto the sod,
In reverence, nearer unto earth;
In lowliness, to God.
