Out of darkness... the light of lights... the holy of holies...





When he asked that we behold his face
His face we beheld
And all that is in us... beholds him
Nearer and nearest... nearer than breathing

The inner silver threads of crystal water
And golden pourings of life-giving oil
Trickle under the door

Tiny, opening, golden buds on the tree of life
Release their inmost fragrance
And we open more and more
The deepest recesses of our heart and mind

The darkest light the brightest light
Our dwelling place in his presence
Where all our light is as darkness to him

And we’re taken where we’ve always lived with him
In intimate love and before ever the world was made
Found where nothing is known but him
And he is everything

And it seems as if we’re made out of star-dust
Shaken out as he shakes the World, again
All shimmering sprinkled ashes
Being dead in him
All in him from the beginning
