    I reach my hand to thee!
    Stoop; take my hand in thine;
    Lead me where I would be,
    Father divine.
    I do not even know
    The way I want to go,
    The way that leads to rest:
    But, Thou who knowest me,
    Lead where I cannot see,
    Thou knowest best.

    Toys, worthless, yet desired,
    Drew me afar to roam.
    Father, I am so tired;
    I am come home.
    The love I held so cheap
    I see, so dear, so deep,
    So almost understood.
    Life is so cold and wild,
    I am thy little child -
    I WILL be good.
