if i come without a thing, then i come with all i need

About Me

Come, true light
Come, life eternal
Come, hidden mystery
Come, treasure without name
Come, reality beyond all words
Come, person beyond all understanding
Come, rejoicing without end
Come, light that knows no evening
Come, unfailing expectation of the saved
Come, raising of the fallen
Come, resurrection of the dead
Come, all-powerful, for unceasingly you create, refashion and change all things by your will alone
Come, invisible whom none may touch and handle
Come, for you continue always unmoved, yet at every instant you are wholly in movement; you draw near to us who lie in hell, yet you remain higher than the heavens
Come, for your name fills our hearts with longing and is ever on our lips; yet who you are and what your nature is, we cannot say or know
Come, Alone to the alone
Come, for you are yourself the desire that is within me
Come, my breath and my life
Come, the consolation of my humble soul
Come, my joy, my glory, my endless delight
-St Symeon the New Theologian
