God! God! God! - Paramahansa Yogananda
From the depths of slumber,
As I ascend the spiral stairway of wakefulness
I whisper:
God! God! God!
Thou art the food and when I break my fast
Of nightly seperation from Thee,
I taste Thee and mentally say:
God! God! God!
No matter where I go, the spotlight of my mind
Ever keeps turning on Thee;
And in the battle din of activity my silent war cry is ever:
God! God! God!
When bolsterous storms of trials shriek
And worries howl at me
I drown their noises, loudly chanting:
God! God! God!
When my mind weaves dreams--
With threads of memories,
On that magic cloth I do emboss:
God! God! God!
Every night, in time of deepest sleep,
My peace dreams and calls:
Joy! Joy! Joy!
And my joy come singing evermore:
God! God! God!
In walking, eating, working, dreaming, sleeping
Serving, meditating, chanting, divinely loving
My soul constantly hums, unheard by any:
God! God! God!
From the depths of slumber,
