How significant is Your silence.
Men speak and do not listen.
You listen and do not speak
words.
How significant is Your silence.
You are Mystery itself,
meeting me in every person,
event, and place.
You continually summon
the universe in Your majesty
through Your simplicity.
You order everything
according to Your plan.
So great is Your faithfulness
that You allow us
to contain You within us.
Your Love is real.
We are two lovers
in this Mystical Marriage.
It is a spiritual marriage,
a life in union with You.
It is impossible to describe.
It is something so personal,
so secret, so subtle,
and so silent.
Everything reveals You.
How significant is Your silence.
