A Gift of Grace

These simple little gifts of Grace

I put down only for Your sake;

For passing Time will soon efface

The memory of me and break

To dust the heart that thrilled to You,

The brain Your presence.made so bright,

And Silence flood out through and through

These vibrant pathways of delight.

Of nought will stay the faintest trace;

Nothing remains and all falls still;

Only this little gift of Grace

May praise You — if it is Your Will.
