What I Will Chase

Come what may,
to watch and to pray
is what I will chase

Why should I run,
from where I can turn
to gain grace for my case?

Why should I wander
from the place of power
because of a fleeting phase?

Is it not to be stronger
that many people seek after?
‘Tis what I will chase!

May not be popular desire
But to keep the fire,
is what I will chase
