You are My song

You are My beloved idea, 
My song of celebration.
You express the qualities 
That shape My whole creation.

You dwell within My tabernacle 
In consciousness of Love divine. 
You embody My delight in Life. 
You manifest this joy of Mine.

Your purpose is to witness Me, 
And see through all illusion 
To all things perfect, good, and true,  
From Love’s pure firm foundation.

From dawn to dusk you are My song, 
My verse of jubilation.
All night you are My tune of grace, 
My dear undimmed reflection.

—Jenny Short
