Religion
Remember Not Our Iniquities
From Poems (1908)
Religion
"Remember not!" I say to Him whose face
Is as the earnest of eternal grace.
"Remember not!" If Thou remember all,
Even from Thy grace even I, Thy child, must fall.
Yet on my knees I dare not breathe a prayer
That is but empty coinage of the air.
There shall not fail one tittle or one jot,
And shall Thy children cry "Remember not!"
