	THOU only Sovereign of my heart,    My refuge, my almighty Friend, And can my soul from Thee depart,     On Whom alone my hopes depend?
2	Whither, O whither shall I go,     A lonely wanderer from my Lord? Could this dark world of sin and woe,     One glimpse of happiness afford?
3	Eternal life Thy words impart;     On these my fainting spirit lives; Here sweeter comforts cheer my heart,     Than all the round of nature gives.
4	Let earth’s alluring joys combine,     While Thou art near, in vain they call; One smile, one blissful smile of Thine,     My gracious Lord, outweighs them all.
5	Low at Thy feet my soul would lie,     Here safety dwells, and peace divine; Still let me live beneath Thine eye,     For life, eternal life, is Thine.
	Anne Steele, 1717-78
