Ascent
Rising from earth, life multiplies
It’s our innate urge to expand
Our instincts driven by God’s hand
Then mind of ego opens eyes
We begin to learn and discern
Yet in fire of desire we burn
When pride dies, our soul wingless flies
Head and heart now act hand in glove
Feral lust transmutes to pure love
Grace descends in heart, bliss the prize
We transcend each and every ism
Magnetism ignites body prism
That we’re God’s light, we realise
Both immanent and transcendent
Luminous and bliss resplendent
Rising from earth, life multiplies
Then mind of ego opens eyes
When pride dies, our soul wingless flies
Grace descends in heart, bliss the prize
That we’re God’s light, we realise
