Lenten Poetry Wednesday

Todays poem is another installment from Protopresbyter Gregory Petrov, written in a prison camp in 1940.

Glory to Thee for the Feast Day of life

Glory to Thee for the perfume of lilies and roses

Glory to Thee for each different taste of berry and fruit

Glory to Thee for the sparkling silver of early morning dew

Glory to Thee for the joy of dawn's awakening

Glory to Thee for the new life each day brings

Glory to Thee, O God, from age to age
