Alone With God

By James Martineau

He who himself and God would know, Into the silence let him go, And, lifting off pall after pall, Reach to the inmost depth of all.
How small in that uplifted hour Temptation's lure and passion's power! How weak the foe that made him fall! How strong the soul to conquer all!
A mighty wind of nobler will Sends through his soul its quickening     thrill; No more a creature of the clod, He knows himself a child of God.
— James Martineau.
