"Thou Son of David, have
mercy on me" (Luke 18:38)
Enlightened thought of Mind, now speak
to my blind eyes. Teach them to seek
God's image in my neighbor; view
man, child, bird, beast, and flower through
the lens of Spirit, magnify
intelligence: let no love die
for friend or foe by dark abuse
of motive, word or deed. Each use
of each divine gift, Oh, make me
its singing instruments—to be
witness when, through a brother's night,
Christ, Truth, repeats: Receive thy sight.
