Desire Is Prayer

RUTH MARIE DILLON

Give me an understanding heart,
Dear Love divine, Thy way to see,
That I may know no life apart
From consciousness at-one with Thee!

For daily strength Thy will to do,
My ever constant prayer would be;
For love to comfort others, too,
And prove Thy truth, which maketh free.

For gratitude which deeds express,—
My faith by daily works to show,—
That I may truly live to bless,
And ever nearer Thee to grow!

My perfect selfhood thus I'll prove,—
Through list'ning for Thy loving voice,—
The child of ever present Love,
Who in Thy allness doth rejoice!

We'd love to hear from you!
