Our Lord, I pray to You that I may see a glimpse of Your light
Light that shines brightly like through a tear in a dark veil
May this light gain new footholds in me, shining in all the shadow places of my soul and cleanse out what is poor and dirty
Replacing that with what is cleansed and upright
Though I sometimes pull the blinds and close my ears, allow me to hear now, oh Lord
Let me see again Your fresh light, and hear the soft Words that guide my path
A first writing of my prayers… April 1991
