78. O! What a privilege to kneel

O! What a privilege to kneel,
Fall down and worship at thy feet,
My God! my Father! and to feel
With Thee communion high and sweet:--

84
To pour my spirit out in prayer,
Or, on the wings of praise ascend,
Like Moses to the Mount, and there
Commune with Thee, as friend with friend.
