Submission

I do not ask, O Lord, that life may be A pleasant road; I do not ask that thou wouldst take from me Aught of its load.
I do not ask that flowers should always spring Beneath my feet; I know too well the poison and the sting Of things too sweet.
For one thing only, Lord, dear Lord, I plead: Lead me aright, Though strength should falter and though heart should bleed, Through peace to light.
Joy is like restless day; but peace divine Like quiet night: Lead me, O Lord, till perfect day shall shine, Through peace to light.

— Adelaide A. Procter
