I Do Not Ask, O Lord, That Life May Be
A Pleasant Road;
I Do Not Ask That Thou Wouldst Take From Me
Aught Of Its Load.
I Do Not Ask That Flowers Should Always Spring
Beneath My Feet;
I Know Too Well The Poison And The Sting
Of Things Too Sweet.
For One Thing, Only Lord, Dear Lord, I Plead:
Lead Me Aright,
Though Strength Should Falter And Though Heart Should Bleed,
Through Peace To Light.
I Do Not Ask, O Lord, That Thou Shouldst Shed
Full Radiance Here
Give But A Ray Of Peace, That I May Tread
Without A Fear.
I Do Not Ask My Cross To Understand,
My Way To See;
Better In Darkness Just To Feel Thy Hand,
And Follow Thee.
Joy Is Like Restless Day; But Peace Divine
Like Quiet Night:
Lead Me, O Lord, Till Perfect Day Shall Shine,
Through Peace To Light.
