Dear Love divine, teach me to hear Thy voice,
And having heard Thee, let me then rejoice
That understanding guides, and I may know
Thy wisdom leads the way where'er I go.
Then quicken Thou my steps; yea, let me walk
So close to Thee that I may ever talk
As consciously with Thee as speaketh man
With man; for thus in Truth Thy perfect plan
Hath been revealed. Thy child hath ever trod
The perfect path of Life at-one with God.
My trust in Thee increase, that I may see
The way Thou hast in Truth prepared for me;
And as those God-inspired of long ago
Were faithful to Thy promise, let me grow
In grace, humility, and patience, till
My life is molded to Thy perfect will.
Thus here and now my real self I 'll express,—
The pure reflection of Love's consciousness.
