Here you will find the Poem The Chosen of poet Marjorie Lowry Christie Pickthall
CALLED to a way too high for me, I lean Out from my narrow window o'er the street, and know the fields I cannot see are green, And guess the songs I cannot hear are sweet. Break up the vision round me, Lord, and thrust Me from Thy side, unhoused without the bars, For all my heart is hungry for the dust And all my soul is weary of the stars. I would seek out a little roof instead, A little lamp to make my darkness brave. 'For though she heal a multitude,' Love said, 'Herself she cannot save.'
