Song-Prayer: After King David

George MacDonald

I shall be satisfied
With the seeing of thy face.
When I awake, wide-eyed,
I shall be satisfied
With what this life did hide,
The one supernal grace!
I shall be satisfied
With the seeing of thy face.

    A Child Asleep
    by Elizabeth Madox Roberts
    I looked for him everywhere Because I wanted him to play; And then I found him on his bed Asleep, but it was day. His eyes were shut behind the lids-- He couldn't lift them up to see.
