ENGLAND'S PRAYER, by WILLIAM BLUNDELL First Line: Sweet jesus with thy mother mild Last Line: May live as brethren in thy house. Alternate Author Name(s): Blundell Of Crosby, William | |||
Sweet Jesus with Thy Mother mild, Sweet Virgin Mother with thy Child, Angels and Saints of each degree, Redress our country's misery. Give judgment, Lord, twixt them and us, The balance yet let pity hold, Let mercy measure their offence And grace reduce them to Thy fold, That we, all children of the Spouse, May live as brethren in Thy house. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...THE LAST WORD OF A BLUEBIRD; AS TOLD TO A CHILD by ROBERT FROST SONNET: 9 by EDNA ST.
