惟有祢
我的心哪，你當默默無聲，專等候神，因為我的昐望是從他而來。
Dear God, I prayed, all unafraid (as we’re inclined to do),
I do not need a handsome man
but let him be like You;
I do not need one big and strong
nor yet so very tall,
nor need he be some genius,
or wealthy, Lord, at all;
but let his head be high,
dear God,
and let his eye be clear,
his shoulders straight, whate’er his state,
whate’er his earthly sphere;
and let his face have character,
a ruggedness of soul,
and let his whole life show,
dear God,
a singleness of goal;
then when he comes (as he will come)
with quiet eyes aglow,
I’ll understand that he’s the man
I prayed for long ago.
