Siegfried Sassoon
For Morn, my dome of
blue,
For Meadows, green and gay,
And Birds who love the twilight of the
leaves,
Let Jesus keep me joyful when I pray.
For the big Bees that
hum
And hide in bells of flowers;
For the winding roads that come
To
Evening’s holy door,
May Jesus bring me grateful to his arms,
And guard
my innocence for evermore.
