Oh, Holy Wonder!
Descend and brighten earth
with Your supernatural brilliance.
Enter the natural zone of our existence
and make it shine with Your abundance.
Oh, Fountain of Eternal Truth!
We have prepared outselves
to receive Your Illumination
to the dizzying depths of our souls.
Prayer and Charity, Worship and Agape
have scoured pettiness from our reformed selves.
Our souls are just empty chambers, anticipating
Your arrival, hollow sanctuaries which long for
Your Holiness to fill them and render them worthy.
Oh, Beloved Spirit! Oh, Marvelous God
of Flight and Illumination!
Our prayers to You express only adoration.
Our faces, raised up to Heaven, are suffused
with a longing for Your perpetual presence.
We have expelled desires, impulses, hungers,
vanities, regrets, fears. We have attained
a condition of emptiness within and without
to be filled with Your Divinity. Come, to us,
lest we die an animal death, with our souls
damaged and severed from Your heightened Being
forever. Transform our desperate pleading
into a hymn of Your Glory. No longer do we tremble
before the terrible calm of Your Being. You have given us
divine understanding. Our hearts burn everything that
occludes Your presence. Our voices stretch out in one prayer,
resounding across space and time to the end of space and time:
GOSPODI POMILUY! GOSPODI POMILUY!GOSPODI POMILUY!
