The Choice

Every man hath the choice,
To do whate'er he will,
Let my choice be to follow Thee,
And be what You would have me be.

For You give to us only the best,
And only in You do we find our rest.**

**You have made us for Yourself, O Lord, and our hearts are restless until they rest in You. - St. Augustine
