"Out of the Depths"

2 Cor. iv. 17

And lo! in vision fair did I behold

One who a psaltery strung—

Two threads he stretched above the strings of gold,

Across, and all along.

Then with the threads thus crosswise o'er the strings,

Gave he the harp to me—

Thus know I how the broken-hearted sings,

O Lamb of God, to Thee.
