Deep Real

There is a deep and quiet place in me,
where I meet God and my real self sincere,
where I find the most honest place to be,
where I do not know worry, care or fear.

From here I can see all the universe
with my mind’s eye, and God with eyes of faith,
in God immersed, the galaxies disperse,
no matter now my life, nor yet my death.

God touches me, and I can hear His voice,
I sense I’m standing close before His face,
I feel a swelling love--I have no choice,
as He inebriates me with His grace.

How sad my words are solely sensual,
while You, God, are deep, real and spiritual.
