Sleep Of Light

MY life is veiled in a sleep of light,

A hush that nothing breaks;

The world before my inward sight

Into pure beauty wakes.

Life that is deep and wonder-vast,

Lost in a breath of sound;

The bubbling shadows have been cast

From its hearts timeless round.

In its lulled silver stream now shines

A lustrous smile of God

Whose brilliantly curved outlines,

Flashing on the memory-trod

Caverns of slumbering earth, there bring

A glow of the In
nite,

While my souls diamond voices Wing

Into a heaven of light.
