Give us this days
GIVE US THIS DAYS LIFE brought her nothing men call good— None of its brightest or its best— But sorrow broke her solitude, And anguish sought her patient breast ; Yet, through it all, her faith was strong, And strongest when most dark her lot. She knew that peace was hers ere long, Where sorrow dies, and tears are not; So, with clasped hands and bended head, Her lips could say, "Give us this day Our daily bread." She climbed the weary hill of life, With feet unaided and unshod (Save by God's grace), and constant strife Attended every step she trod. Yet, through the gloom these shadows made A light about her feet was cast, And lifting up her voice, she laid Her load, where loads must come at last; Hence those poor lips but faintly fed In faith could say, "Give us this day Our daily bread." — J. T. Burton Wollaston.
