EVENSONG

Ps. xci. 4.

               Take me, Jesus, to Thy breast;
               Folded close in warmth and rest,
                    Keep me near to Thee;
                                    Silenced in the bliss profound
               Of the love that wraps me round,
                    Every care shall be.
                                    Every breath for Thee alone,
               O my heart's beloved One;
                    Comfort me in sleep.
                                    Still deep rest art Thou to Thine,
               Safely in Thine arms divine
                    Thy beloved keep.
                    

G. T. S.
