As In Heaven, So On Earth



I know the inner you,
serene, wholesome, grand,
the essence of the real man,
a place of glowing flame.

That flame is not extinguished
by loneliness or grief,
it shelters flickers on the way,
midst hurricanes.

The joy of sharing, building on Truth's eternal stand,
walking on foundation sure, away from sinking sand.
The strength receiving,  joining two as one,
imparting freedom, hearts expand.
