Here in this sacred place commune with Love:
withdraw from mortal sense; let earth weights fall,
while healing truths come to your waiting thought
with that rich peace the Christ extends to all.
Gain here the sweet assurance that perceives
man joyous, free, forevermore at one
with good. Here reaffirm that unity
of perfect God and His beloved son.
Thus lifted from the mist into the light,
behold yourself well pleasing in God's sight.
