DEVOTION

By L. D. Santee

BY ELB. L. D. SANTEE.
Heart tender with emotion, Cheeks wet with tears, Life holy with devotion Through time’s brief years;
Glad, but not flushed with gladness, For dangers come; Sad, but not bent with sadness, We’re nearing home.
Dear Lord of all creation, Draw down, draw nigh, List to our supplication, Thy children cry.
Do thou protect and guide us By thy great power, And ’neath thy pinions hide us In danger’s hour.
May strength to us be given, More of thy grace; And may we in yon heaven See thy dear face.
We pray each day, with sadness, “Thy kingdom come:” Soon shall we shout, with gladness, “We’re going home!”
