In Thee, my powers, my treasures live,
To Thee, my life must tend ;
Giving Thyself, Thou all dost give,
O soul-sufficing friend !
And wherefore should I seek above
Thy City in the sky ;
Since firm in faith, and deep in love,
Its broad foundations lie ?
Since in a life of peace and prayer.
Nor known on earth, nor praised.
By humblest toil, by ceaseless care.
Its holy towers are raised.
Where faith the soul hath purified.
And penitence hath shriven.
And truth is crowned and glorified,
There — only there — is Heaven.
