A Prayer.
God of the lonely soul,
20d of the comfortless,
of the broken heart—for these,
Thy tenderness!
For prayers there be enough
Yea, prayers there be to spare,
For those of proud and high estate;
Each hath his share.
But the beggar at my door,
The thief behind the bars;
Ahd those that be too blind to see
The shining stars;
The outcast in his hut,
The useless and the old;
Whoever walks the city's streets
Homeless and cold;
The sad and lone of soul
Whom no man understands;
And those of secret sin, with stains
Upon their hands,
souls;
sleep,
with trembling

Afraid to weep;
