Portrait of Maltbie Davenport Babcock Maltbie Davenport Babcock When the Great Sun Sinks to His Rest

Or if in solemn forest shades
The calm of nature steals o’er me,
And silence all my soul pervades,
Then teach me, Lord, to worship Thee.
Not in the sacred shrines alone,
Which chime their summons unto me,
Would I look upward to Thy throne,
But everywhere would worship Thee.
