Let midnight in
Starlight moonlight and lamplight
Sunlight and mindlight
Let nothing be
Open bone flesh and blood
Let flow life-force
Of earth and water fire and air
Let stone flower and bird be
Before names and labels
Open Mind
Let rise untrammelled
Thought metaphor and word
Happenings of song and silence
Let utterance be
Open Spirit
Of knowledge spread like its sky
Of action transformative like its oceans
Of being like its rooted mountains
Open nothing
Frameless all
That He may enter
Word made Flesh
Be
Emmanuel
