How can we follow
if our feet turn back
to paths of greed or self or deep remorse?
How can we come
with fists so tightly closed
on matter, taking error's winding course?
There is a way—
the Christ way it is called—
to hold all things but lightly in God's sight,
to seek Him first:
to let our cluttered lives
make place—large place—for knowing, now, His might.
There is a way.
