Sunday Prayer

Awakening Prayer

When I close my eyes this night to sleep,

Beloved Divine,

help my consciousness awake.

When I wake up from my sleep in the morning,

Beloved Divine,

let my eyes and ears perceive

the lies of the past

the truth of the present

and the possibilities for the future.

Let me wake up with clear eyes

that see beneath the façade

to perceive the truth

underneath what we call reality.

When I wake up in the morning,

Beloved Divine,

wake me up to my Dream

so that it lights my path

through the night of delusion

and the slumber of distraction

into the delight of co-creation

with you, all-loving Source.
