GETHSEMANE, by                    
First Line: Breathes there a man who claimeth not
Last Line: Touch hands with god.
Subject(s): Gethsemane


Breathes there a man who claimeth not
One lonely spot,
His own Gethsemane,
Whither with his inmost pain
He fain
Would weary plod,
Find the surcease that is known
In wind a-moan
And sobbing sea,
Cry his sorrow hid of men,
And then—
Touch hands with God.
