Requests - Digby Mackworth Dolben

I asked for Peace-

My sins arose,

And bound me close,

I could not find release.

I asked for Truth-

My doubts came in,

And with their din

They wearied all my youth.

I asked for Love-

My lovers failed,

And griefs assailed

Around, beneath, above.

I asked for Thee-

And Thou didst come

To take me home

Within Thy Heart to be.
