SONNET VIII.
[If the low breathings of the poor in heart]
1796.
If the low breathings of the poor in heart,
If the still gratitude of wretchedness
Relieved when least expecting, have access
To Thee, the Almighty Parent, Thou wilt dart
Thy loving kindness on the offering meek
My spirit brings, oppressed with thankfulness,
At this lone hour: for Thou dost ever bless
The stricken soul, that sighs and cannot speak.
Omniscient Father! I have been perplexed,
With scoffers linked! yea, called them my friends,
Who snare the soul! But now, by doubt unvexed,
My heart uplifts itself; its aim extends
To Heaven, where Thou thy brighter dwelling hast,
Oh Omnipresent Thou, first, midst, and last!
