Poor and needy will I come that thou mayest entertain me,
Meek and lowly will I come that thou mayest find a friend, With mercy and with truth will I come to give thee comfort. Therefore open thy heart to me and bid me welcome, In this tent of the world I will be thy brother of the bread, And when thou farest forth I will be thy companion forever._ Then my soul rested in the word of the Lord; And I saw that the curtains of the world were shaken, But I looked beyond them to the stars, The camp-fires of my eternal friend. |
