O’ Secret Source, O’ everlasting Light,
What I was yesterday has passed from sight;
What I am now shall fade in time’s swift stream,
For man is but the shadow of a dream.
Within Thy fire my hidden soul takes flame,
A rising spark no darkness e’er can tame;
At times a lightning through the silent sky,
At times a dawn where gentler glories lie.
A thirst abides no mortal draught can still,
A secret anguish bends the wandering will;
Yet in Thy law my faltering heart obeys,
And walks through night in hope of brighter days.
In threads of longing and in love’s deep art,
The veiled enigma trembles in my heart;
For every wound some quiet truth reveals,
And every tear a boundless ocean seals.
Then breathe, O’ Dawn, upon this clay of mine,
Grant it a strength no passing years decline;
Fill thou mine eyes with morning’s tender ray,
That I may rise renewed to greet the day.
And like a spark from hidden depths concealed,
Shine forth in hope while fleeting shadows yield.
