The Gift

I am the gift, I am the poor
I am the man of this night
I am the son of God in the door
I am the gift on the living.

Son of the rain, son of the dew
Son of the dawn, son of the clouds;
Son of the planet, son of the star
Son of the element, son of the flame
Son of the moon, son of the sun
Son of Mary of the God-mind

I am the gift, I am the poor
I am the man of this night
I am the son of God in the door
I am the gift on the living.

I see the hills, I see the shore,
I see the hosting of angels,
A cross on my right shoulder;
I am in the door: open thou.
