Happy are thy men, happy are these thy servants, which stand continually
before Thee and that hear Thy wisdom

Coming to the King

Coming to the King.



I came from very far to see
The King of Salem, for I had been told
Of glory and of wisdom manyfold,
And condescension infinite and free.
Now could I rest, when I had heard his fame,
In that dark lonely land of death, from whence I came?
