Prayer.

THERE is an eye that never sleeps, Beneath the wing of night; There is an ear that never shuts When sinks the beams of light.

There is an arm that never tires, When human strength gives way; There is a love that never fails, When earthly loves decay.

That eye is fixed on seraph throngs; That ear is filled with angels' songs; That arm upholds the worlds on high, That love is throned beyond the sky.

But there's a power that man can wield When mortal aid is vain— That eye, that arm, that love to reach— That listening ear to gain: That power is prayer, which soars on high, And feeds on bliss beyond the sky.
