A Quaker Prayer

God, open my eyes and unstop my ears,
that I may see your Light and may hear your heartbeat,
reflecting and resounding within my chest,
in those of all of my neighbors, near and far,
in all creatures and plants,
and in the ground I walk upon.

And when I finally am able
to yield to the leading of your rhythm and flow,
may I come to walk cheerfully over the world
answering your seed in all.
