Religion
The Footsteps of the Flock
From The Poets and the Poetry of the Century, ed. Alfred H. Miles
Religion
Not always. Lord, in pastures green
The sheep at noon Thou feedest.
Where in the shade they lie
Within Thy watchful eye:
Not always under skies serene
The white-fleeced flock Thou leadest.
