In
Praise of the Light

 

Light in my body,
Light in my mind,

Light in each moment
and blessing I find,

Light in my heart
and Light in my hands,

Light where I’m
going and Light where I stand,

Light in each cell
and Light in each word,

Light in each deed
and all that is heard,

Light in you and Light
in me,

Light in everything
I see,

Light in my plans
and Light in my dreams,

Light in my soul
where Light does stream,

Light in my wounds
and Light in my pain,

Light in my sorrow
and springtime rain,

Light in my healing
and Light in my breath,

Light in my living
and Light in my death,

Light in forgiveness
and Light in the past,

Light in the shadows
that evening casts,

Light in my doubts
and Light in my worries,

Light in my steps
that needn’t be hurried,

Light in my doing
and Light in my knowing,

Light in my purpose
steadily growing,

Light in my
stumbling, Light in my dancing,

Light in my pausing
and Light in my chancing,

Light in the
darkness of doubt and fear,

Light in gratitude,
hope, and cheer.
