The Kiss

Oh, my Lord, it is true
as a rosebud I love You.
There has never been another.
I sing my love songs to my Brother.
O, my God, my King;
I kiss Your Face;
I touch Your Feet.
The beauty of Your Eyes at night
are the stars that Heaven lights.
The fabric of Your Gleaming Gown
holds things undreamed of and Your Crown.
You are the Eternal Bliss I see
beyond the oceans and the seas.
When I leave this world I'll send,
a silent kiss and smile to Thee.
You are in me and I am in Thee;
and we are in everything I see.
