The past stands like a shield before the now;
The future like a flaming sword. Meanwhile,
The now stands brightly forth, shedding its light;
That those who would see, will. Christ's gift of sight,
He offers all the humble, willing ones
Who would but see the world He looks upon,
And have every perception purified.
Thus do they lay the body's eyes aside.
As all vision is but a wish fulfilled,
So is theirs granted by their holy Will
