Devotion

From this day, Lord, I determine
In Thy presence to abide;
Not for loaves, or daily sunshine,
But within Thyself to hide.

Lord, at every passing problem
Help me to approach Thy throne;
And, released from man's opinion,
Seek the will of God alone.

Grant, Lord, faith to move each mountain
Which would hide Thyself from me;
Lead me to the dancing fountain
Of Thy love eternally.
