The Masters Touch.

In the still air music lies unheard;
In the rough marble beauty hes unseen
To wake the music and the beauty needs
The master touch, the sculptor chisel keen.
Great Master touch us with thy skilful hand;
Let not the music that is in us die;
Great sculptor! hew and polish us; nor let
Hidden and lost, thy form within us he.
Spare not the stroke, do with us as thou wilt;
Let there be naught unfinished, broken, married.
Complete thy purpose, that we may become
Thy perfect image, o our God and Lordl
