ELLA A. STONE

Give me, dear God, a consecrated heart
Kept holy unto Thee,
O'erflowing with Thy love divine
And tender purity.

And may the healing breath of charity,
Like fragrance from a flower,
Touch all my actions and my thoughts
With Thine own mighty power.

And oh, dear Father, may I not forget
Thy wondrous gift to me
And all Thy children—gentleness,
That makes us like to Thee.

Help me each hour to feel Thy peace and joy,
And know Thy loving care,
By ever lifting up to Thee
My heart in grateful prayer.

Keep me receptive as a little child
To thoughts that come from Thee;
Thus heavenly inspiration sweet
Shall guide continually.

We'd love to hear from you!
