THE GLORY OF THE COMMONPLACE
Lord of all pots and pans and tins, ■ I have no time to be A saint by doing lovely things, by watching late with Thee, Or praying in the dawn light, or storming Heaven's gates, Make me a saint by gettihg meals and washing up the plates. Warm all the kitchen with Thy love, and fill it with Thy peace, Forgive me all my worrying and make all grumbling cease. Thou who didst love to give men food, in room or by the sea, Accept this service that I do— I do it unto Thee. — (Selected).
