GOD of heaven! hear our singing! Only little ones are we, Yet a great petition bringing, Father, now we come to Thee. Let Thy kingdom come, we pray Thee. Let the world in Thee find rest; Let all know Thee, and obey Thee, Loving, praising, blessing, blessed! Let the sweet and joyful story Of the Saviour's wondrous love, Wake on earth a song of glory, Like the angels' song above. Father, send the glorious hour, Every heart be Thine alone! For the kingdom, and the power, And the glory are Thine own. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...BATTLEDORE AND SHUTTLECOCK by AMY LOWELL SURFACES AND MASKS; 1 by CLARENCE MAJOR VARIATIONS ON A THEME: ROMANCE by EDITH SITWELL THE UNSUNG HEROES by PAUL LAURENCE DUNBAR CONCORD HYMN; SUNG AT COMPLETION OF CONCORD MONUMENT, 1836 by RALPH WALDO EMERSON THE PASSOVER IN THE HOLY FAMILY (FOR A DRAWING) by DANTE GABRIEL ROSSETTI |
