ON CALVARY'S LONELY HILL, by HERBERT CLARK JOHNSON First Line: Let's not be slow in knowing Last Line: Before the cleansing's done. | |||
Let's not be slow in knowing That these cold drops of rain Have not the power to cleanse The sinner's crimson stain. For each sweet stolen hour There'll be a bitter one On some high lonely hill Before the cleansing's done. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...CROSSING A CREEK by HERBERT CLARK JOHNSON WILLOW BEND AND WEEP by HERBERT CLARK JOHNSON A NYMPH TO A YOUNG SHEPHERD, INSENSIBLE OF LOVE by PHILIP AYRES MUSIC OF NATURE by E.
