By ARCHBISHOP TRENCH
Lord, what a change within us one short hour Spent in Thy presence will prevail to make! What heavy burdens from our bosoms take, What parched grounds refresh, as with a shower! We kneel and all around us seems to lower. We rise, and all, the distant and the near, Stands out in sunny outline brave and clear; We kneel, how weak!—we rise, how full of power!
