Come to Me + 

Come to me, come to me, O my God; + 

Come to me everywhere! + 

Let the trees mean thee, and the grassy sod, + 

And the water and the air! + 

For thou art so far that I often doubt, + 

As on every side I stare, + 

Searching within, and looking without, + 

If thou canst be anywhere. + 

How did men find thee in days of old? + 

How did they grow so sure? + 

They fought in thy name, they were glad and bold, + 

They suffered, and kept themselves pure! + 

But now they say⁠—neither above the sphere + 

Nor down in the heart of man, + 

But solely in fancy, ambition, and fear + 

The thought of thee began. + 

If only that perfect tale were true + 

Which ages have not made old, + 

Which of endless many makes one anew, + 

And simplicity manifold! + 

But he taught that they who did his word + 

The truth of it sure would know: + 

I will try to do it: if he be lord + 

Again the old faith will glow; + 

Again the old spirit-wind will blow + 

That he promised to their prayer; + 

And obeying the Son, I too shall know + 

His father everywhere! + 
