WHEN I ASK FOR HELP

I must in consecration askAnd strive to lift my thought aboveThe transient dream;Turn humbly to my Father-Mother LoveWith childlike trust;The moments dedicate anewThat I may know the victory once againOf good, and wakeJoyous and free at last from fear and pain—Thus truth I seek.
