SIGHT BEYOND SIGHT by HARRY HIBBARD KEMP

First Line: IF THE GOOD LORD HAD BUT RESTORED
Last Line: BEYOND THE REACH OF SIGHT.
Subject(s): GOD; SIGHT;
IF the good Lord had but restored
My sight, that were unkind
To wend abroad and stare and nod
And yet within be blind!

But with that hand and that command
That filled the eye with light
He gave to me the gift to see
Beyond the reach of sight.
