XXIX. PRAYER
Though I be far, yet I can set in motion
By prayer for thee
A stronger force than sways the wildest sea,
The fiercest ocean.
By prayer for thee
A stronger force than sways the wildest sea,
The fiercest ocean.
Love passes into prayer, and desperate yearning
That crosses space
And brings our parted spirits face to face,
All distance spurning.
That crosses space
And brings our parted spirits face to face,
All distance spurning.
The soul who prays wields force by far the strongest
Of forces all:
He soonest wins love's topmost castle-wall
Who prays the longest.
Of forces all:
He soonest wins love's topmost castle-wall
Who prays the longest.
