A PRAYER
"How easy it is for me to live
with thee Lord! How easy to believe in Thee! When my thoughts pull back in puzzlement or go soft, when the
brightest people see no further than this evening and know not what to do tomorrow, Thou sendest down to me clear confidence that Thou art, and will make sure that not all the
ways of the good are closed.
On this ridge of earthly
fame, I look back in wonder at the road which I would never have been able to divine
alone-that wonderous path through hopelessness to this ridge from which I too have been
able to radiate among men a reflection of Thy rays. And Thou will grant me to continue
reflecting them as long as need be. And that which I cannot complete will mean that Thou
hast allotted it to others.
(Burg, 1972, 189)
