"Cities of refuge"

The Mighty Ones

MARIAN GREGG

Oh, pilgrim, when your journeys leadThrough lonely marsh or dreadful height;When dragons, swollen with lust and greed,Obstruct your way; or lurking fearSkulks, out of sight, but ever near,And you must either turn or fight,All suddenly, your timid prayerIs charged with strength; a flaming dartYou hold, and on the pathway thereFirm foothold gain; a holy lightSurrounds your struggle for the right,And victory sings within your heart;
