The reign of God! His light and love and joy,
In glad consent I take His guiding hand;
In the bright sunshine where I live and move,
This quickening impulse is His kind command.
In Him I am. I Him I move and live:
He lives and moves and loves and is in me;
Direct my thoughts, dear Father, let me give
My heart, my voice, my strength, my all to Thee.
Yes, ā when I choose, I hear my Father's voice,
His word my conscience, and His joys my joys!
Among the children of the King I stand;
My God is here. His Kingdom is at hand!
