Regathered

In fervent,
Impassioned prayer,
Are we regathered,
In soul and spirit;
From the many fancies
That bewilder us;
And the distractions,
That dissolve us
Into the dust
Of the world.
Here, we are collected,
Into His peace;
Into His power;
And into His wisdom:
We gain a heart,
Resolved to any fate;
Because we rest;
Secure, and quenched,
In the gladsome arms,
Of the Living God.
