Behind the Veil + 

Banish’d the House of sacred rest, + 

Amid a thoughtless throng, + 

At length I heard its creed confess’d, + 

And knelt the saints among. + 

Artless his strain and unadorn’d, + 

Who spoke Christ’s message there; + 

But what at home I might have scorn’d, + 

Now charm’d my famish’d ear. + 

Lord, grant me this abiding grace, + 

Thy Word and sons to know; + 

To pierce the veil on Moses’ face, + 

Although his speech be slow. + 
