If I should cease to be the true expression
Of Principle, and Truth, and Life, and Love,
God would be less than constant. No digression
Is possible to Him in whom we move
And live and have our being. For the beauty
And continuity of Life divine
Are not some distant goal; the recognition
Of my at-one-ment now has made them mine.
Not God confined in man, but all the fullness
Of man expressing God, at one, complete;
The measure of the infinite is allness,
Aware of neither triumph nor defeat.
And in the conscious oneness of my being,
Annihilating falsity and strife,
The mighty all-inclusiveness of Spirit
Exemplifies the Christliness of Life.
