Hail to Thee, oh Light of Life

What of birth and what of death for Him, Who comes to save our souls, to save our souls, Karma-free He moved around, coming and going in fullness all His own.

Blessed is His coming when and wheresoever as design He may, for He comes to lead the self-exiled, now longing for the Way.

His glance of Grace is richer far than all the riches herebelow, the human in man blossoms forth at once as His breezes blow; and as the spirit shoots across the shadow phantoms of the night, there comes in full view the Sage-in-Radiance at once sublime and bright.

Together they move hence thro’ wondrous inscapes strange to sight, till in the midst of dulcet strains He renders His charge to Himself aright.

Such is the great alchemy of Love that shakes the throne of God, and God Himself hastens adown, clad in vile attire to share our woes, and to what end? Save to serve as a Saviour for the fallen souls.
