Verse 2

And next I prayed for strength: That I might tread the road With firm, unfaltering feet, and win The heaven's serene abode.

Verse 3

And then I asked for faith: Could I but trust my God, I'd live in folded in His peace, Though foes were all abroad.

Verse 4

But now I pray for love: Deep love to God and man; A living love that will not fail, However dark His plan.

Verse 5

And light and strength and faith Are opening everywhere! God waited patiently until I prayed larger prayer.
