Oh, that my eyes be open
May I see to every side
Above and below me
Within and all about.
May my words speak my feelings
So that you can understand
The depth of my emotion
My joy and yes, my pain.
Oh that my heart be open
To give and to receive
May love be what moves me
in all that I can be
As the hawk flies above me,
May I be like he
My far seeing eyes missing nothing
As far as I can see.
As the sweet rose before me
Unfolds as it must
May I open fully
In love and in trust
As water flows over rocks
And down this wide stream
May words come like healing
Through prayers and in dreams
