The Moon is always Full
The Moon is Always Full
The moon is always full
Our human eyes
See only its phases
Love is always here
Our human heart
Sees only its shadow
Joy is always present
Our human mind
Reasons it away
God is always near
Our human spirit
Knows this without words
O Moon, display your full beauty
to my inner eye
O Love, come into the light that casts
no shadow
O Joy, overflow my cup of reason
with your wine
O God, fill me, fill me, fill me
with Your knowing
That my heart may rejoice in You
My eyes may be filled with You
My reason overcome by You
My spirit abound in You
Ameen!
