“We all with open face beholding, as in a glass, the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image.” 2 Cor. iii. 18.

But in another glass I scan,
Hiding His heavenly rays,
The image of the Son of Man,
And kindle as I gaze.
In deepest sense of my desert
Thus daily let me die,
If so I may but touch the skirt
Of His great charity!
