Amrita

```

Our Amrita is he who covers the scars

Of other souls even from their own sight.

He comes to us all veiled under varied forms.

In every guise his is a unique light.

Him we adore because his snow-white heart

Believes in his Ideal true, its endless range.

No sacrifice to him is ever too great

In the cause of creation's fire-pure change.

A million seekers may sit at their Master's Feet.

But Amrita's life makes Him a reality.

Compassion-Sun belongs to the Master alone.

A flame, this soulful child, through Eternity.

This kingly soul is far above the law,

Yet obeys the law to be at our hearts' doors.

Reality and Unity — his boat

Plies quick between these two supernal shores.

Delight shoots through his life because he knows

How to do good to others at each hush-gap.

His loving heart feeds not the dark despair.

He expects nothing save the Mother's Lap.
