’Tis but a Step

SAY not that we from heaven are far, When holy thoughts thereto may run, And every breath of faithful prayer Brings answer ere our words are done.
Say not that life is dark or lone— That here unseen, unheard, we lie, When stooping from his glorious throne, The Eternal hears our meanest cry.
Say rather, God and heaven are near, And we, by golden links of prayer, Are bound, with every human fear, To him, the highest, holiest there.
— G. Milner.
