O Son of Man, who walked each day A humble road, serene and strong, Go with me now upon life's way, My Comrade all the journey long. So shall I walk in happiness, So shall my task with love be fraught-- If Thou art near to mark and bless The labor done, the beauty wrought. O Son of God, who came and shed A light for all the ages long, Thy company shall make me glad, Thy fellowship shall keep me strong. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...UNHOLY SONNET 11 by MARK JARMAN LISTEN, LORD: A PRAYER by JAMES WELDON JOHNSON A PRAYER FOR THE FUTURE by GEORGE BARLOW (1847-1913) DIFFERENT WAYS TO PRAY by NAOMI SHIHAB NYE PRAYER DURING A TIME MY SON IS HAVING SEIZURES by SHARON OLDS WE WHO PRAYED AND WEPT by WENDELL BERRY PRAYERS AND SAYINGS OF THE MAD FARMER by WENDELL BERRY LET US HAVE PEACE by NANCY BYRD TURNER |
