O God, let me rise to the edges of time and
open my life to your eternity;
let me run to the edges of space and
gaze into your immensity;
let me climb through the barriers of sound
and pass into your silence;
And then, in stillness and silence
let me adore you,
Who are Life--Light-Love--
without beginning and without end,
the Source--the Sustainer--the Restorer--
the Purifier--of all that is;
the Lover who has bound earth to heaven
by the beams of a cross;
the Healer who has renewed a dying race
by the blood of a chalice;
the God who has taken man into your glory
by the wounds of sacrifice;
God...God...God...
Blessed be God
Let me adore you.
