THE WONDER OF IT.
O God, how beautiful to liveAnd on Thy bosom lie,
A part of all, if fugitive
And only made to die!
O more than wonderful to be
At all, upon this globe
That is a shadowy glimpse of Thee,
A glimmer of Thy robe.
I am content to love and trust
And look in silent praise,
Though I be only as the dust
Thy passing footsteps raise.
