Lines: If GOD should say to me, Behold!

________________________________________________
Title:     Lines: If GOD should say to me, Behold!
Author: Madison Julius Cawein [More Titles by Cawein]

If GOD should say to me, Behold!--
Yea, who shall doubt?--
They who love others more than me,
Shall I not turn, as oft of old,
My face from them and cast them out?
So let it be with thee, behold!
--
I should not care, for in your face
Is all GOD'S grace.

If GOD should say to me, Behold!--
Is it not well?--
They who have other gods than me,
Shall I not bid them, as of old,
Depart into the outer
HELL?
So let it be with thee, behold!--
I should not care, for in your eyes
Is PARADISE.
