Living

Song-prayer_: After King David

by George MacDonald 1824–1905

From The poetical works of George MacDonald in two volumes — Volume 2

Living

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.
