A Poem from "The Enlightened Heart"- An anthology of Sacred Poetry

Help me to be aware of my selfishness,

but without undue shame or self-judgement.

 

Let me always feel you present,

in every atom of my life.

 

Let me keep surrendering myself

until I am utterly transparent.

 

Let my words be rooted in honesty

and my thought be lost in your light,

 

Unnameable God, my essence ,

my origin, my life blood, my Home.

                                          (William Blake 1757-1827)
