Religion

Every Man for His Own Hand

by Mary E. Coleridge 1861–1907

From Poems (1908)

Religion

I may not call what many call divine,
And yet my faith is faith in its degree;
I worship at a dim and lonely shrine
On bended knee.

The secret grace of faith's celestial part
I hoard up safely for mine own selfs own;
Within the hidden chambers of the heart
I love alone.
