There is no mystery: the truth of being
Was lived by Jesus so that we could see
That knowing Truth bestows the living fountain
From which Christ-healing springs eternally.
It is not miracle: the quenchless Spirit
Girds in eternal law the living way;
The scope of Mind, illimitable, unfettered,
Makes plain the open tomb at break of day.
The deathless Christ appears, the veil is riven,
And every lingering mist of doubt must go,
For Love's eternal loving lights the gloaming,
And lo, the darkness fades to morning glow.
