| Thus set before thee If it proves at length | B |
| As well it may beyond thy natural strength | B |
| Faint not despair not As a child may ask | A |
| A father pray the Everlasting Good | C |
| For light and guidance midst the subtle snares | D |
| Of sin thick planted in life's thoroughfares | D |
| For spiritual strength and moral hardihood | C |
| Still listening through the noise of time and sense | E |
| To the still whisper of the Inward Word | C |
| Bitter in blame sweet in approval heard | C |
| Itself its own confirming evidence | F |
| To health of soul a voice to cheer and please | G |
| To guilt the wrath of the Eumenides | G |
