Doubtless Thou art our Father though Abraham be ignorant of	A
us and Israel acknowledge us not Isaiah lxiii	B
	-
	-
Father to me thou art and mother dear	C
And brother too kind husband of my heart	D
So speaks Andromache in boding fear	C
Ere from her last embrace her hero part	D
So evermore by Faith's undying glow	E
We own the Crucified in weal or woe	E
	-
Strange to our ears the church bells of our home	F
This fragrance of our old paternal fields	B
May be forgotten and the time may come	G
When the babe's kiss no sense of pleasure yields	B
E'en to the doting mother but Thine own	H
Thou never canst forget nor leave alone	H
	-
There are who sigh that no fond heart is theirs	B
None loves them best O vain and selfish sigh	I
Out of the bosom of His love He spares	B
The Father spares the Son for thee to die	I
For thee He died for thee He lives again	J
O'er thee He watches in His boundless reign	K
	-
Thou art as much His care as if beside	L
Nor man nor angel lived in Heaven or earth	M
Thus sunbeams pour alike their glorious tide	L
To light up worlds or wake an insect's mirth	M
They shine and shine with unexhausted store	N
Thou art thy Saviour's darling seek no more	N
	-
On thee and thine thy warfare and thine end	O
E'en in His hour of agony He thought	P
When ere the final pang His soul should rend	P
The ransomed spirits one by one were brought	P
To His mind's eye two silent nights and days	B
In calmness for His far seen hour He stays	B
	-
Ye vaulted cells where martyred seers of old	P
Far in the rocky walls of Sion sleep	Q
Green terraces and arched fountains cold	P
Where lies the cypress shade so still and deep	Q
Dear sacred haunts of glory and of woe	E
Help us one hour to trace His musings high and low	E
	-
One heart ennobling hour It may not be	R
The unearthly thoughts have passed from earth away	S
And fast as evening sunbeams from the sea	R
Thy footsteps all in Sion's deep decay	S
Were blotted from the holy ground yet dear	C
Is every stone of hers for Thou want surely here	T
	-
There is a spot within this sacred dale	U
That felt Thee kneeling touched Thy prostrate brow	V
One Angel knows it O might prayer avail	U
To win that knowledge sure each holy vow	V
Less quickly from the unstable soul would fade	P
Offered where Christ in agony was laid	P
	-
Might tear of ours once mingle with the blood	P
That from His aching brow by moonlight fell	W
Over the mournful joy our thoughts would brood	P
Till they had framed within a guardian spell	W
To chase repining fancies as they rise	B
Like birds of evil wing to mar our sacrifice	B
	-
So dreams the heart self flattering fondly dreams	B
Else wherefore when the bitter waves o'erflow	W
Miss we the light Gethsemane that streams	B
From thy dear name where in His page of woe	E
It shines a pale kind star in winter's sky	I
Who vainly reads it there in vain had seen Him die	I
