Some "At Night" Prayerful Poetry - - -

[With apologies to Alice Meynell 1847-1922]

LULLABY OF DOMINE DUSK
by Jay Watson

Here, here from the deep Heavens pure and clear,

  Righteous His soft robes sweep;

Lambs in the washing of The Shepherd’s wounds dear

  To guard in peaceful sleep.

 

Oh, which gift shines brightest from Christ’s merit

  From pierced Body of The Lord?

Baptized in The Father, Son and Spirit

  Christ’s Word to me, His Word!
