With step secure and free,
To take its straight and onward pace,
Over life's path with me.

Wanted--an eye,within whose depth
Mine own might look, and see

O'erflown with love for me.
Wanted--a lip, whose kirdest smile
Could speak for me alone
A voice, whose richest melody
Would breathe affection g tone.

To pious purpose given,
With whom my own might pass along
