"With pilgrim staff I seek a fairer country, But I'm so frail, so blind, so prone to stray; The sharps and thorns my weary feet encounter; But One there is who guides me all the way. Mayhap my path will lie across the mountains, Where gorges cleave, midway, the dizzy height; Or elsewhere thread the broad, inviting valleys? Whate'er defalls, 0, lead my steps aright! . Should false ambition woo from tasks of duty, Or pleasures vain begin the siren song. Hold Thou my hands, nor let my spirits falter; Impart Thy strength and make me doubly strong.
