Have deserted noble aims
To live alone with thot?
What, then, when God this soul re-
claims
Can l show that I've wrought?
In my extreme cry to thee,
Oh! Father, touch my heart,
And make me more consistently
Perform my little part.
Oh! give me power to find the path
That meek and humble one
Made Gross the world thru storms of
wrath,
That NAV follow on.
