With thee we seek the things above;
Our inmost souls thy spirit breathe,
Of power, of calmness, and of love.
3 The power, ’mid worldliness and sin,
To do, in all, our Father’s will;
Like thee, the victory to win,
And bid each tempting voice be still.
4 The calmness perfect faith inspires,
Which waiteth patiently and long;
The love which faileth not, nor tires,
