Prayer by Philip Newell
That truth has been inscribed into my heart
and into the heart of every human being,
there to be read and reverenced,
thanks be to you, O God.
That there are ways of seeing
and sensitivities of knowing
hidden deep in the palace of the soul,
waiting to be discovered,
ready to be set free,
thanks be to you.
Open my sense to wisdom’s inner promptings
that I may give voice to what I hear in my soul
and be changed from the healing of the world,
that I may listen for truth in every living soul
and be changed for the well-being
of the world.
