I Lift my Heart

OI lift my heart to God and grace is poured
His Love a mighty taper, ever glows
My soul doth long, His silent way adored
Each fiber of my being He does dispose
I for one do know His way is true
If to His will my soul does not betray
Falling short so oft, one does surely rue
Opportunities that are lost upon life's way
Help me Lord, to be a soul inclined
Vigilant with a single eye to see
Meditate upon Thy heart, my way defined
The whole potential shown, that I may be
I walk this path now humbled by Thy light
May my offering be worthy in Thy sight

Mastery is the Goal

The laws of life are not designed to scold
They're only there to illuminate our soul
The blessings of truth and mastery are age-old
Revealed to all through Heaven's protocol
For life's purpose truly is our freedom
A justice that is subject to God's mercy
The blueprint of just what we shall become
Beyond the realm of human controversy
Seek to always live the Golden Rule
Balancing negative returns, day by day
Mastery is the goal, in this 'school'
Enough of all our excuses and delay
Be obedient to God's Law, at all times
Comprehend with perspective what's sublime

Surrender

Surrender now and be content
Within God's holy will
Commandment of thy higher self:
A resounding "Peace be still!"

Forget thy tepid scheming ways
And happiness will come
Such a simple ideation
Though too complex for some

If we're forgetful of the self
We're remembered by our God
Though a pure and simple concept
It's a path that's not well trod

As we become God's loyal servant
Then we're becoming free
Let this precept He's set forth
Be applied lovingly

Heaven's August Decree

Every seed sets forth a basic longing
Of latent God-potential manifest
Pure energy sings a sacred hymn of belonging
As all natural growth will so attest
But human agitation will not allow
Life's inspiration set upon our brow

So worry not about the lesser self
For progress will be lessened to our dismay
Placing the Christic mantle upon the shelf
But all our struggles still are not allayed
Lack of patience is fore'er to blame
Strengthening our faith in God should be the aim

When the heart's found one with blessed purity
The heavenly stream of God will not run dry
His love becomes the ultimate security
All that's truth is then revivified
All our human struggling tends to cease
As all that's joy and victory does increase

When from a rock a natural spring does spout
The rock does disappear within the spring
As adamant stone through time is soon washed out
Quenching water from the depths it brings
Each soul is the strata in this apothem
Valued for what our God is pouring through them

But dogma given to anyone proved untrue
Is likened to an image drawn in dust
God will set the time our soul breaks through
Each embodied lifestream's sacred trust
When the heart is one with God-reality
That oneness slowly diminishes all duality

Attunement needs to be life's great concern
A sacred temple not made with human hands
The seeds that we may plant through life's sojourn
Create cosmic ties and filigree strands
The reality of God be not denied or gainsaid
As the seeds of cosmic truth are spread

Rise, in the highest calling of light
As this mantle God bestows on you
Set the example of what is true and right
As His hallowed love shall so imbue
Espouse the truth through time for all to see
As an increment of heaven's august decree

The Title "She"

Oh gender fair, endowed with precious grace
Flower and filigree thread of all of life
Omega is God's aspect you'll retrace
Whether mother, daughter, sister, wife
Nurturing is your sacred gift to bless
Whether kin or across this blessed earth
To mother, counsel, comfort or caress
You're the instrument for this world's rebirth
The civilizing force, found in this creation
The negative charge of God's positive descent
In this Tai Chi of all manifestation
Becoming Alpha's perfect compliment
Divinity's cast upon the title "She"
"S" is for the sacred God added to "He"

Be Now Forever

Fleeting senses and vagary recollections
Becalming sparks, be they what they may
Light and buoyant, gossamery affections
Still the fountain-light of all my day
Master light of all that's perfect seeing
Uphold and cherish that integration pure
Confounded years seem an instant in my being
A moment of bejeweled calmness is the cure
Oh, blessed eternal silence, the truth you wake
In immortal sea I drown to perish never
Joyous calm of many lives' endeavor
Moving in worlds, not realized, that I make
What's been a transient radiance, felt so bright
Be now forever expanded to my sight

Back to Nature

Our soul's at home within the sylvan land
For the rural life is living in God's home
The urban milieu makes one stressed and slammed
It can't compare with nature's halidome1
Glass, steel and mortar distort God's light
And the resonance of the soul with higher realms
This man-made savage cage of sin and blight
Suffocates the soul and overwhelms
Trees, mountains, grass and hills prepare
To nourish the soul in methods now unseen
Communion in this temple of open air
A purified, holy sacrament so serene
Our urban jungles will never soothe the soul
Back to nature is what will make us whole

BLESS’D JOY

Bless’d Joy, B’loved Serenity
Truth may yet be told
Fill this simple, humble heart
To create the perfect mold

Your fruits, such perfect stillness
My heart a home for Thee
Each moment fills to overflowing
God’s perfect artistry

This wisdom of the ages
Profound and yet so true
My heart is Thy receptacle
To Thy inner clue

Take me Lord, raise me up
To thy home so fair
I truly long to be Thy son
The mantle of Christ heir

Joy, Joy, sing your song
Sing for all to hear
Perfect calm, serenity
That all may persevere
