Text Appearing Before Image: cies seemed. 1 could not sleep unless Thy handWere underneath my head, That I might kiss it if I layWakeful upon my bed. And quite alone I never felt ; —■I knew that Thou wert near, — A silence tingling in the room ;A strangely pleasant fear. I know not what I thought of Thee ; What picture I had madeOf that Eternal Majesty To whom my childhood prayed. HTMNS. 26S I know I used to lie awake And tremble at the shapeOf my own thoughts, yet did not wish Thy terrors to escape. With age Thou grewest more divine, More glorious than before ;I feared Thee with a deeper fear Because I loved Thee more. Thou broadenest out with every yearEach breadth of life to meet. I scarce can think thou art the same,Thou art so much more sweet. Father ! what hast thou grown to now > A joy all joys above.Something more sacred than a fear. More tender than a love. With gentle swiftness lead me on. Dear God I to see thy face.And meanwhUe in my narrow heart O make Thyself more space ! — F.W. Faher. \/_
