Excerpt from Poems of the Christian Year
When saints of old
When saints of old sad vigil kept,
Beside the brooks of Babylon,
And swathed in sackcloth, silent wept
Because the light of Heaven was gone,
Some prophet old, in desert dress,
Would raise his rugged voice and cry:

The King so long expected, came,
To still the sea of passion wild,
The sins that darken life so shame,
