Like Gold of Havilah

Like gold of Havilah
   God is true and straight.
I can exhort Adonai
   For His tender heart.

Be it ambivalence
   Or the hour of drear
Wherever prayer is
   The Lord abides there.

Royalty and rivalry
   May erupt with hate
But He will take my leave
   Untouched by the flame.
