THE GRACE OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST
Sometimes contritely, seeking ease, ' « I say my sorrowful litanies; Sometimes by the power of the Holy Ghost I praise God with the angelic host. But most of the time I just get through The thousand things that there are to do, And find myself too tired to pray When I go to bed at the end of the day.' Yet, as through the covert of leaves, a bird Will be for a moment seen and heard, In the sweet and careful voice of a child And the tender mouth of a man who smiled And the wprd of a woman, I see and hear Through the thick of the day that Christ is near. : - ' * sx :,< —G. M. H.
