Dinah Maria Mulock - Now And Afterwards
Work rating: Low

TWO hands upon the breast, 
And labor`s done; 
Two pale feet crossed in rest-- 
The race is won; 
Two eyes with coin-weights shut, 
And all tears cease; 
Two lips where grief is mute, 
Anger at peace":-- 
So pray we oftentimes, mourning our lot 
God in his kindness answereth not. 

"Two hands to work addrest 
Aye for His praise; 
Two feet that never rest 
Walking His ways; 
Two eyes that look above 
Through all their tears; 
Two lips still breathing love, 
Not wrath, nor fear"; 
So pray we afterwards, low on our knees; 
Pardon those erring prayers! Father, hear these!
