Earth tells me
What to do.Heaven tells me
What to become,How to become
And why to become.What to do?
I must cultivate patienceInfinitely more than I have.
What to become?God’s Compassion-Choice.
How to become?By virtue of surrender-light.
Why to become?Because that is the only thing
That can satisfyMy inner life of aspiration-cry
AndMy outer life of dedication-smile.
