Prayer

BY R. L. Z.

Dear God my heart inclines to Thee,
Help me to know Thy living Way;
For Thou art Light dispelling gloom
Revealing an eternal day.

Dear Father, I would ask of Thee
The wisdom all my steps to guide;
The knowledge of Thy perfect law
Wherein no evil can abide.

Dear Mother,—sweetest of all words,—
Rule in me with tender grace;
My heart make loving, "just and pure,"
That I may help the human race.

Dear Father-Mother God, my all,
As homeward flies the weary dove,
So would I, childlike, come to Thee,
For Thou art everlasting Love.
