Did your mind wander through the past to see A lad with tousled hair upon your knee And in your memories did you hear Him say His evening prayers in childhood's muddled way? Did you remember watching Jesus sleep 'Mid peaceful boyhood dreams? And did you weep When you recalled the swiftness of His change From youth to manhood? Did it not seem strange That He Whose baby footsteps you had led Was laid before you broken, cold-and dead? And did it help to know His cause was great When all the earth seemed dunged with greed and hate? These things I ask for naught but to compare My thoughts with yours.
