The best of gifts is ours within our Father's hand, with joy and peace beyond the powers of mind to understand. Bid every anxious care and wayward thought depart; make known your need to God in prayer and he will keep your heart. Give love the highest place; have all things good your goal. Let truth and righteousness and grace in peace possess your soul. In honour take delight; let justice mark your ways; things innocent and pure and right command your love and praise. Become God's garden fair, where virtue freely flowers; and as the mind of Christ is there the God of peace is ours.
