Master, we would no longer be
At home in that which hated Thee,
But patient in Thy footsteps go,
Thy sorrow as Thy joy to know;
We would-and O confirm the power-
With meekness meet the darkest hour,
By shame, contempt however tried,
For Thou wast scorned and crucified.
J. G. Deck, quoted in William MacDonald, Worlds Apart
