LET THY LOVE PLAY UPON MY VOICE

Let thy love play upon my voice

and rest on my silence.

Let it pass through my heart into all my movements.

Let thy love like stars shine in the darkness of my sleep

And dawn in my awakening.

Let it burn in the flame of my desires

And flow in all currents of my own love.

Let me carry thy love in my life as a harp does its music

And give it back to thee at last with my life.
