Threefold Flame of Christ

Christ the Suffering is the fire of love The red flame that flows within every plant, person and dove Who sacrificed itself on each tree in sight For the eventual victory of the tranquil light Christ the Messiah is the flame of power The golden fire that shines goodness into each flower Showing its life to those asleep during night Repelling the endless shadow of night through its hot might Christ the Luminous is the flame of wisdom The blue fire that unveils the all and heaven’s kingdom Illuminating the caged brain all the way through Releasing the caged bird to the endless expanse of blue This is the triple powered flame unquenching Shining as three endless lamps but is a single white light
