Explore "An Evening Prayer" by George MacDonald on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
I am a bubble / Upon thy ever-moving, resting sea: / Oh, rest me now from tossing, trespass, trouble!
Take me down into thee.
Give me thy peace.
My heart is aching with unquietness: / Oh, make its inharmonious beating cease!
Thy hand upon it press.
My Night! my Day!
Swift night and day betwixt, my world doth reel: / Potter, take not thy hand from off the clay / That whirls upon thy wheel.
O Heart, I cry / For love and life, pardon and hope and strength!
O Father, I am thine; I shall not die, / But I shall sleep at length!
