O strong and gentle keeper of my soul You bind me not with fortune's fickle chain But lead me as one helps the halting blind Nor chidest me for flaws that still remain. Patiently by grace with love you bind Your child to beauty dancing through the years And in recurring births that purify Add love to love replacing human tears That all my errant ways might sanctify. You are the sun who burns away mere sin, Proclaims the truth our mortal birth reveals, The symbol of the need to live within, The radiant light that now upon us steals, The One alone who lives unseen in all.
