Phineas Fletcher's 'A Litany' – A Poignant Prayer of Mercy and Gratitude 🙏

DROP, drop, slow tears, <br />   And bathe those beauteous feet <br />Which brought from Heaven <br />   The news and Prince of Peace: <br />Cease not, wet eyes, <br />   His mercy to entreat; <br />To cry for vengeance <br />   Sin doth never cease. <br />In your deep floods <br />   Drown all my faults and fears; <br />Nor let His eye <br />   See sin, but through my tears.<br /><br />Phineas Fletcher<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-litany/
