Look right, look left, I dwell alone; I lift mine eyes, but dimmed with grief No everlasting hills I see; My life is in the falling leaf: O Jesus, quicken me. My life is like a faded leaf, My harvest dwindled to a husk: Truly my life is void and brief And tedious in the barren dusk; My life is like a frozen thing, No bud nor greenness can I see: Yet rise it shall--the sap of spring; O Jesus, rise in me. My life is like a broken bowl, A broken bowl that cannot hold One drop of water for my soul Or cordial in the searching cold; Cast in the fire the perished thing; Melt and remould it, till it be A royal cup for Him, my King: O Jesus, drink of me.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7078</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We found that time was late and we saw that the matters will need another day in order to reach ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36219]]></link><description><![CDATA[We found that time was late and we saw that the matters will need another day in order to reach results that please everyone.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36219</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The merchant has no country ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59501]]></link><description><![CDATA[The merchant has no country]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59501</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sky has made a lot of acquisitions.
