I am a child of the Light,
created by and for Love,
to live now and ever in eternal Life.
Lord and Master teach me
to remain in Your Light.
Good Shepherd guide me
to abide in Your Love.
Savior and Redeemer humble me
that You may live Your Life in me.
Yea, O Merciful One,
I desire to remain and abide—
contemplating the face of Love,
gazing upon the incorruptible Beauty,
dwelling in the everlasting Light,
and living as a praise of glory.
“A praise of glory is a soul that gazes on God in faith and simplicity; it is a reflector of all that He is; it is like a bottomless abyss into which He can flow and expand; it is also like a crystal through which He can radiate and contemplate all His perfections and His own splendor. A soul which thus permits the divine Being to satisfy in itself His need to communicate all that He is and all that He has, is, in reality, the praise of glory of all His gifts.” -St. Elizabeth of the Trinity, O.C.D.
