IF I have failed, my God, to see That Thy great Love was guiding me; If I have missed the open path Of Truth, which e'er Thy sanction hath; If, busy with the passing hour, I noted not Thy glorious Power; And, 'mid the boast and pomp of things, Restrained my spirit on its wings; Then, Father, show me Grace I pray, And lead me toward the righteous way; Then, Lord of Hosts, compassion me, And let Thy Love my shelter be! | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...IN THE TRENCHES by RICHARD ALDINGTON THE LOVER IN HELL by STEPHEN VINCENT BENET SPOKEN AT A CASTLE GATE by DONALD (GRADY) DAVIDSON THE SITTING by CECIL DAY LEWIS IN QUEST by GEORGIA DOUGLAS JOHNSON |
