40. YOU TOLERATED ME
My Lord, You tolerated meBefore I aspired.
Therefore
My vital-horse is all gratitude to You.
My Lord, You tolerated me
Before I realised You.
Therefore
My heart-deer is all gratitude to You.
My Lord, You tolerated me
Before I manifested You.
Therefore
My soul-lion is all gratitude to You.
