I wanted the gold and I sought it

I scrabbled and mucked like a slave - Robert Service
but the last part is prettiest I think..
Yet it isn't the gold that I'm wanting
So much as just finding the gold.
It's the great, big, broad land 'way up yonder;
It's the forests where silence has lease;
It's the beauty that thrills me with wonder;
It's the stillness that fills me with peace.

"With glowing hearts we see thee rise.."
