Lead Me In

Joseph Zitt (1995)

Lead me in, eyes of solemn fire,
    into the lives that stir
    within the memories of your soul.
Lead me in and let me dwell
    among your songs
    and drape my tent across the letters of your name.

Lead me in, voice of silence,
Lead me, in, breath of Sabbath light,
    and I will gladly leave this life
        of angles and of time
    and lose myself in worship
        of you who can dissuade the will of God.

Lead me in, and I will be as wind
    and dedicate my rush of living dreams
        to dive into you
            dissolve into you
            annihilate myself within you
        and to be reborn
            as your child.
