Awake my soul to your perfect Justice
that i may find it marked in my being
to bring about change that would cause
the towers of the unjust to crumble
like a castle of sand,
and fall like autumn leaves.
Awake my soul to Love,
let me weep for Your bride.
To embrace with open arms
the damaged and destitute,
the Rich and redeemed,
the saint and sinner
as You have embraced me
Awake my soul to Peace
that lies in moments of
baptism in your name.
Overflowing immersion
holding on to nothing else
and at peace
for that is all I need.
Awake my soul to Joy
ineffable joy in moments
of pain, and ecstasy, embodied
by a craving for You without exception.
Awake my soul to you,
keep me in your love,
and drown me in your Grace.
