Behind the world of images

From the Boundless Life collection

Behind the world of images

There’s nothing we can see.

Behind the realm of sound and word

There’s nothing we can hear.

Behind the sphere of logic’s norms

There’s nothing we can prove.

Behind the space of touch and taste

There’s nothing we can feel.

 

Beyond perception’s narrow paths

In nothing God exists;

Beyond our human ways of thought

God’s boundless myst’ry dwells.

This source and goal of spirit’s life

Is Presence we can trust,

A journey in the NOW to sense

The I AM who is God.

 

Alternative Tune: ST. BERNARD as four verses
