Communion

By WORTHIE HARRIS HOLDEN

WORTHIE HARRIS HOLDEN
WHAT greater boon to man is given, What joy more tense with bliss of heaven,— That man may talk with God! To hold communion with our King, To supplicate as offering Unto our gracious Lord.
So merciful, so near, thou art, So patient with each humble heart That bows before thy throne! And by thy word an answer given Is borne us through the gates of heaven To make thy purpose known.
Communion at the mercy-seat, Communion in the busy street, Wherever we may be; By day, by night, if dark or bright,— All gloom shall vanish with thy light; When talking, Lord, with thee.
Portland, Ore.
