...The Awakener |
|||
HE Who glows within the rose, |
|||
He Who every mystery knows, |
|||
He Who comes like gentle rain |
|||
Soothing all our earthly pain; |
|||
The true Awakener of the heart |
|||
Who sees the Whole within the part; |
|||
Who raises man above the earth, |
|||
Renewing him in mystic Birth. |
|||
A flame, a fire, a perfect flower, |
|||
A penetrating Cosmic Power; |
|||
A cleaving sword to strike away |
|||
The crudities of mortal clay. |
|||
A Voice that calls across the night; |
|||
"Arise! and seek the Perfect Light |
|||
From whence you came, It is your Goal, |
|||
And dwells eternal in your soul." |
|||
He Who glows within the rose, |
|||
He Who every mystery knows, |
|||
On the path where Saints have trod, |
|||
Behold Him come, the Son of GOD! |
