Not more of Light we ask, O God, | |||
But eyes to see what is; | |||
Not sweeter songs, but ears to hear | |||
The present melodies. | |||
Not more of strength, but how to use | |||
The power that we possess; | |||
Not more of love, but skill to turn | |||
A frown to a caress. | |||
Not more of joy, but how to feel | |||
Its kindling presence near, | |||
To give to others all we have | |||
Of courage and of cheer. | |||
No other gifts, dear God, we ask, | |||
But only sense to see | |||
How best those precious gifts to use | |||
Give us all fears to dominate, | |||
All holy joys to know; | |||
To be the friend we wish to be, | |||
To speak the truth we know. | |||
To love the pure, to seek the good, | |||
To lift with all our might | |||
All souls to dwell in harmony, | |||
To love the pure, to seek the good, | |||
To lift with all | |||
All souls to dwell in harmony, | |||
In freedom's perfect light. | In freedom's perfect light. | ||
Amen! | |||

{{Translation|Portuguese| | |||
Não Te rogamos mais luz, ó Deus | |||
Senão olhos para ver a luz que já existe | |||
Não Te rogamos canções mais doces | |||
Senão ouvidos para ouvir as presentes melodias | |||
Não Te rogamos mais forças, senão o modo de usar | |||
O poder que já possuímos | |||
Não mais amor, senão habilidade | |||
Para transformar cólera em ternura | |||
Não mais alegria, senão como sentir mais próxima | |||
Essa inefável presença | |||
Para dar aos outros tudo o que já temos | |||
De entusiasmo e de coragem | |||
Não Te rogamos, amado Deus, mais dons, | |||
Mas apenas senso para perceber e melhor usar | |||
Os dons preciosos que já recebemos de Ti | |||
Faze que dominemos todos os temores | |||
Que conheçamos todas as santas alegrias | |||
Para que sejamos os amigos que desejamos ser | |||
Para transmitir a verdade que já conhecemos | |||
Para que amemos a pureza, para que busquemos o bem | |||
E, com todo o nosso poder possamos elevar | |||
Todas as almas, a fim de que vivam em harmonia | |||
E na luz de uma perfeita liberdade. | |||
Amém!}} | |||
