A Prayer by George Eliot

Title

A Prayer by George Eliot

Description

"Saviour of sinners: when a poor woman, laden with sins, went out to the well to draw water she found Thee sitting at the well. She knew Thee not; she had not sought Thee. Her mind was dark; her life was unholy. But Thou didst speak to her, Thou didst leech her, Thou didst show her that her life lay open before Thee..."
