<p>Christ of the upward way, my Guide divine,<br>
Where Thou hast set Thy feet, may I place mine;<br>
And move and march wherever Thou hast trod,<br>
Keeping face forward up the hill of God.</p>
<p>Give me the heart to hear Thy voice and will,<br>
That without fault or fear I may fulfill<br>
Thy purpose with a glad and holy zest,<br>
Like one who would not bring less than his best.</p>
<p>Give me the eye to see each chance to serve,<br>
Then send me strength to rise with steady nerve,<br>
And leap at once with kind and helpful deed,<br>
To the sure succor of a soul in need.</p>
<p>Give me the good stout arm to shield the right,<br>
And wield Thy sword of truth with all my might,<br>
That, in the warfare I must wage for Thee,<br>
More than a victor I may ever be.</p>
<p>Christ of the upward way, my Guide divine,<br>
Where Thou hast set Thy feet, may I place mine;<br>
And when Thy last call comes, serene and clear,<br>
Calm may my answer be, &#8220;Lord, I am here.&#8221;</p>
