Explore "Poems: VENI CREATOR" by Alice Meynell on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
So humble things Thou hast borne for us, O God, / Left'st Thou a path of lowliness untrod? / Yes, one, till now; another Olive-Garden.
For we endure the tender pain of pardon, -- / One with another we forbear. Give heed, / Look at the mournful world Thou hast decreed.
The time has come. At last we hapless men / Know all our haplessness all through. Come, then, / Endure undreamed humility: Lord of Heaven, / Come to our ignorant hearts and be forgiven.
