"Lord, purge our eyes to see
Within the seed a tree,
Within the glowing egg a bird
Within the shroud a butterfly
Till, taught by such we see
Beyond all creatures, thee
And harken to thy tender word
And hear its "Fear not; it is I."
Words: Christina Rossetti quoted in "God Has No Religion: Blending Traditions For Prayer" by Frances Sheridan Goulart Within the seed a tree,
Within the glowing egg a bird
Within the shroud a butterfly
Till, taught by such we see
Beyond all creatures, thee
And harken to thy tender word
And hear its "Fear not; it is I."
