More and more I'm coming to see,
if for God's guidance I pray,
and earnestly want to stay
in tune with things divine
by realizing God is
the only Mind, and mine*
that things do not merely happen--
whether involving circumstances
or events seemingly brought
about merely by man.
I find there is at work
God's incomparable plan.
And how appropriate it is
to seek His right-on direction,
they way our Lord and Master did.
Thus doing, less and less will one
wake up one day to find
his footsteps, alas, have slid.
So, in matters material or ethereal,
I'm learning it's worth the bother
to seek counsel from our loving
always-with-us, all-knowing Father.
