LORD! take me and lead me whithersoever Thou willest! Is it Thy Will that
my life be spent in the midst of such incessant toil and tumult that no
time is left for those brief moments of leisure of which I sometimes
dream?
Yes! yes! I wish it also!
Is it Thy Will that lonely and sorrowful I am left on earth, while those I
loved have gone to dwell near Thee above?
Yes! yes! I wish it also!
Is it Thy Will that unknown by all, misunderstood even by those whose
affection I prize, I am looked upon as useless, on account of my
stupidity, want of manner, or bad health?
Yes! yes! I wish it also!
Thou art Ruler. O my GOD! only be Thyself the Guide, and abide with me
forever!
