THE HAND OF THE PRIEST. There Is something we prize more
than gems, more than gold— More than earth's rarest treasures,
its beauty, its brawn, Be it fairer than lilies, or wlther'd and
old It hath ever a blessing, a charm of
its own, 'Tis the hand of the Priest, of our
Father in God, No King's can compare with its
dignity grand; Ev'ry saint of the Lord who this dark
earth hath trod Owes Life everlasting to that holy
hand.
A marvelous grace from its touch ever rises—
God's mercies are centered its pure palm within.
'Tis the hand at the Font—'tis the hand that baptizes,
Releasing men's soul from original sin.
'Tis the hand that absolves when the penitent kneeling
In the sacred Tribunal, in sorrow and shame,
To the ear of the Priest all his errors revealing,
Wins pardon and peace in the Cruci-fied's Name.
Again ev'ry morn, when the Gift of all gifts.
The Lamb on the altar is slain, sacrificed—
'Tis the hand of the Priest that enfolds, that uplifts,
The Body and Blood of our God, the Lord's Christ!
'TIb his hand that sustains, that gives food to our needs,
When we flock, in our hunger, to God's holy shrine,
For the Priest, like his Master, the multitude feeds
With the Manna from heaven, the Bread all divine.
When Life is fast ebbing, Time's drama swift closing.
And the ties and the joys of this earth over pass'd,
The Christian in Death's gloomy shadows reposing,
By the hand of the Priest is anointed at last.
Well, then, may we prize it — this treasure of ours—
May bless and revere it, night, morning and noon,
Whether wither'd and old, fairer, sweeter than flowers,
Thank God for the hands of our Sogoarth Aroon!
