After Work

Title:     After Work
Author: John Oxenham [More Titles by Oxenham]

Lord, when Thou seest that my work is done,
Let me not linger on,
With failing powers,
Adown the weary hours,--
A workless worker in a world of work.
But, with a word,
Just bid me home,
And I will come
Right gladly,--
Yea, right gladly
Will I come.

[The end]
John Oxenham's poem: After Work
