O eternal God, light surpassing every light,
Because all light comes forth from you!
O fire surpassing every fire,
because you alone are the fire that burns
Without consuming!
You consume whatever sin and
selfishness you find in us.
Yet your consuming does not distress us, but
fills us with insatiable love,
For though you satisfy us,
We are never sated,
but long for you constantly.
The more we possess you,
the more we seek you and desire you,
the more we find and enjoy you,
Eternal Fire and Abyss of Love. Amen.
