I visited the altar rail Tonight, when I was blue And everything seemed wrong to me Until I came to You. A cross I had througout the day, My path, a shadow crossed; a thing of grife had saddened me And peace of mind I'd lost. I went to Christ and knelt with Him And begged His precious care, And them my cross the lighter grew. It was easier to bear. I left it at the altar rail Just as I came away, And now my soul is happy, My heart is light and gay. The grief and sorrow that was mine No more my peace will stay; I left them at the altar rail Just as I came away. -- Anonymous
