In an eternal house in human time We sit in silence and a timeless space Surrounds us as we watch the spirit climb Above our sorrows and our sins outpace.
A force of the profound immeasurable Describes within the stillness of the soul The ways of light, the path accessible To the fearless who relinquish mind's control.
One has lit the sun that beacons clear Upon the crystal in its golden base A plenitude of peace has channelled here, Resident in every human face.
A calm is felt as tangible as touch, The quickened heart with a Presence fills, In this dwelling-place of God the ego's clutch Is gone with grief and pain and worldly ills.
As we submit to beauty the depths depart, By slow degrees or suddenly by grace A constant inner growth shall move the heart, Desire with a love divine replace.
