"Byzantine" Prayer

Serene Light, shining in the
Ground of my being,
Draw me to yourself,
Draw me past the snares of the senses,
Out of the mazes of my mind,
Free me from symbols, from words
That I may discover
The Signified
The Word Unspoken
In the darkness
That veils the ground of my being.


From Fr William Meninger, Centering Prayer, 12th Nov 2008
