Prayer Quote By Tennyson

I need to pray more. Here’s a poem by Lord Alfred Tennyson~makes me wonder, was he a Christian. I don’t know. I need to read his bio.
MORE things are wrought by prayer
Than this world dreams of. Wherefore, let thy voice
Rise like a fountain for me night and day.
For what are men better than sheep or goats
That nourish a blind life within the brain,
If, knowing God, they lift not hands of prayer
Both for themselves and those who call them friend?
For so the whole round earth is every way
Bound by gold chains about the feet of God.
ALFRED TENNYSON
