Soul of my Soul

Soul of my soul, impart Thy energy divine! Inform and fill this languid heart, And make thy purpose mine. Thy voice is still and small, The world's is loud and rude: Oh, let me hear thee over all, And be, through love, renewed!

Give me the mind to seek Thy perfect will to know; And lead me, tractable and meek, The way I ought to go. Make quick my spirit's ear Thy faintest word to heed: Soul of my soul! be ever near To guide me in my need.
