Here in Thy presence. Father, is my home.
Oh, useless wandering in search of peace!
It is a futile, hollow dream of fear
Would have me setting forth or turning back
To find the warm forever welcoming
Of Thy sustaining wisdom and Thy love.
I cannot step beyond the boundary
Of Thy protecting truth, nor move outside
The quiet comfort and the calm of Mind.
Here is my shelter, here my resting place;
Here in Thy presence, Father, is my home.
