The Light of the Kingdom

Make me a beacon of ever-flowing light
A bird enamored by the gifts of flight
A minaret wafting songs of joy and delight
A haven of love in the darksome night

Purify my heart from all worldly things
From the dust which sullies my mortal wings 
From self-focused thought and the torment it brings
From this world to which my ego clings

Let the Light of the Kingdom radiate through me
Its reflection illuminated in the depths of the sea
Its glorious message setting hearts and souls free
As each of us strives in His Light just to 'Be' 

"Let the love and light of the Kingdom radiate through you, until all who look upon you shall be illumined by its reflection."
