In the Truth My Freedom Find


Child with immemorial eyes

Who are the compass of my soul

Come closer that I might excise

The demons who still exert control.


Lead on my spirit to your fields

Of love and laughter and delight

As the darkness in me yields

To the supreme ennobling light.


Teach me to dance, to sing the songs

That fall from Heaven's fount of peace,

All my injustices, my wrongs,

My errant ways help me to cease


And in the Truth my freedom find,

Purified in heart and mind.
