If We But

If we but relinquish fears we choose to cling to, opting for cessation, be assured oh hermit, we’ll feel bliss sensation. If we but relinquish desires of fickle heart, by holding firm focus, rapid is soul’s ascent, along the love locus. If we but relinquish the moment that’s gone by and simply feel God’s breath, that keeps us now alive, we’ll have no dread of death. If we but relinquish cause that makes us stagnate, we be and so become, one with the universe, as bliss beats within hum.

Fear of death surmounts all other fears but yes, it can be transcended
