Of My Inner Being
A peaceful calm persuades my mind and heart
When the still, small voice speaks to my soul
And completes the greater, quiet part
Of my inner being.
My self can only be completely whole
When this spirit vows never to depart,
And guides me to a more tranquil self-control.
I need no other when I am walking apart
From this world, no one to console
When this serene spirit is the chart
Of my inner being.
