Oh lead me through the realms of love

With that unfailing hand of Thine.

I ask nor wealth, nor fame, nor power;

I ask a pure and loving heart

That I may join that heart to hers

Forever nevermore to part.

And oh then peace, peace, the peace of love

For that old, old longing; and the real

And soul-enlighted face of her,

The image of my heart’s ideal.
