To His Ever-loving God Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCCDDEEAFGHHH| Can I not come to Thee my God for these | A |
| So very many meeting hindrances | B |
| That slack my pace but yet not make me stay | C |
| Who slowly goes rids in the end his way | C |
| Clear Thou my paths or shorten Thou my miles | D |
| Remove the bars or lift me o'er the stiles | D |
| Since rough the way is help me when I call | E |
| And take me up or else prevent the fall | E |
| I ken my home and it affords some ease | A |
| To see far off the smoking villages | F |
| Fain would I rest yet covet not to die | G |
| For fear of future biting penury | H |
| No no my God Thou know'st my wishes be | H |
| To leave this life not loving it but Thee | H |
