I Ask Only This
Grant me peace — I surrender
Let me not close my eyes due to this
Grant me Peace as I surrender
Grant me vision to see what is true
Let my salvation not be hindered
----
Lead me away from the darkness
Where I stumble about like a beggar
Where fear and hate rule the day
Where I would but attack my brother
----
Lead me forth to your blessed light
A peaceful land of milk and honey
Bring me over the rivers of tears
those of sorrow and despair that fill the lonely
----
Bring my soul to that holiest place
where self meets Self, where strength unites
where my weakness fades from view
where darkness leaves, replaced by sight
----
Let me not close my eyes due to this
Grant me Peace-I have surrendered
I only want to know what is true
I am loved — I have remembered
