A PRAYER.
Deepen, Lord, the light divine,In this darkened heart of mine;On my inmost spirit shine,Radiance of th’ Eternal Trine!Deepen, Lord, the life divine,In this barren heart of mine;—As the branch is to the vine,Hangs my helpless soul on Thine.Deepen, Lord, the love divine,In this lonely heart of mine;Surest seal and sweetest sign,—There thy perfect peace enshrine.Light, and life, and love, Thou art;—With thy grace, Thyself impart;Rest and Rapture of the heart,Come, and nevermore depart.
