Thou adorable

In the treasure full,
In the measure full
Of Thy latitude.
Touch my littleness,
Heal my brittleness
And ingratitude.

Fair infinities,
Though by loss-bearing,
Raise my needingness
To the exceedingness
Of Thy cross-bearing.

O Thou Beautiful,
Make me dutiful—
All that ails in me;
With Thy fashioning
Wrought by passioning,
Drive Thy nails in me.
