The Light Has Come

"Rail not at the darkness,
as though night has the final say.
Take gladly the True Light come
and press back the shadows.
Not even mortality is the final end.
Death's hand has been out-grasped,
and the veil from top to bottom shorn.
Where blackness once prevailed,
the Sun of Heaven has shone
to make us see beyond -
beyond the finiteness we know
to the splendor
of the Hidden Tomorrow
of Holy Brightness."

~C. Robert Pearson
