In your presence, darkness flees
It finds a place to try and hide
Yet in such for all it frees
We stay here, in you we abide
In our chaos before cosmos
A voice from eternal realms spoke
All hidden came into focus
Emanations see all take note
In every creation light must come
Shine on the path that leads to change
A world begs for it to become
A new you emerged, life rearranged
Your appearance brings cleansing
From you all lights emanate
Our source, our beginning, our healing
Nurtures all life as it propagates
Our light, the eyes in this body
Limited though it be for to see
Cannot see for us perfectly
Others in nature see colors as a sea
You are everywhere, all need you
A world without you, brings nothing to view
As moons our light merely reflects you
The light that makes all wonderfully new
Dwelling in immortal light unapproachable
Exposed to a faint view, our skin shine too
Sees all created by your unknowable
Your profoundness, beyond our faint view
As the light of the world, you came our way
Vield in flesh to shine in all our dark places
Would we in darkness remain, forever stay
Or allow our path be brightened today
The way, the truth, the life came as you
Showed the way, revealed truth, created life
The light of all, wonders not so few
Transfigured to show life as light
Light that once covered us before our shame
Will once again enter in from which we came
To be consumed yet live as when we became
One at last, clothed again, to never be the same
