MIND II

                     I thank you, Lord, our Father in the sky,

                     That Mind we’ve chosen to personify,

                     Who brought all earthly creatures into being,

                     But whom we have no faculty for seeing.

                     Despite that misery and death abound,

                     Our cosmic consciousness can grow profound,

                     And at our best we happily may transcend

                     The fear of our anticipated end

                     By reckoning that mind shall never die

                     But is the Source on which we all rely,

                     Mysterious, but apprehensible,

                     The That of which the universe is full,

                     The omnipresent ground on which we stand

                     That some unfathomable force has planned.
