The face of God pierced my night caressed me awake and set my heart on fire
With a lover's care I was lifted up and clothed in humble garments
The leaves of my old life trembled and were cast off by a sudden wind
I wept many tears my heart pressed out every drop
In the ache of a newborn heart I first heard the cry of others and saw their spiritual need
It was God's mercy alone that tamed my heart taught me to wait patiently and listen carefully as the miracle of spiritual birth unfolds
The first petals are opening in a new seeker's heart |
