An Evening Prayer Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CCCC DEDE FGFG

I am a bubbleA
Upon thy ever moving resting seaB
Oh rest me now from tossing trespass troubleA
Take me down into theeB
-
Give me thy peaceC
My heart is aching with unquietnessC
Oh make its inharmonious beating ceaseC
Thy hand upon it pressC
-
My Night my DayD
Swift night and day betwixt my world doth reelE
Potter take not thy hand from off the clayD
That whirls upon thy wheelE
-
O Heart I cryF
For love and life pardon and hope and strengthG
O Father I am thine I shall not dieF
But I shall sleep at lengthG
