AN EVENING PRAYER.
Forgive us for the smiles we failed to give—• Smiles on which saddened hearts may live - And yet- and yet we failed to give! Forgive* us for the words we've left unsaid— Words that feed hungry hearts like bread And vet -and vet were left unsaid! f And for the little deeds we’ve left undone, That might have cheered some lonely one —• And vet —and yet were left undone ! Forgive us. Thou who knowest us so well, That we have failed our love to tell By smiles and words and deeds so well.
