Teach me absolute transparency, dear God,
That they may see, through me,
Hint of Your infinite ways of loving:
The strong compelling love of Your fatherhood
When tasks seem so drear and long;
The comforting love of Your motherhood
Seen in Jesus' compassion for all human needs.
Show them the healing balm of Love's sweet peace
At day's end with victories won.
May they be ever conscious of the unity of Love
When You, Mind, are worshiped as One.
