“ Increase my amazement at Thee ”
1
To go
From form to core
Theory to knowledge
To pass beyond the gateway of names-
This is the true liberation
Though in the folly of the mind much may be lost
How the infinite loves the wonderment of the finite!
How precious the true bewilderment!
Yet the mind can resist the heart’s inclinations
And block the moments of grace
