That common light

There is a common light, an energy, 

That fills and fuels all things: 

The earth, the skies, the seas, 

All breathing ones that walk, or swim, or fly, 

And all that’s lived, or loved, or lost to us: 

Each, however still, enlivened by 

A spirit that unites us all, 

Unbroken, circling the globe 

And all that lives and breathes or rests 

Beneath, beside, within us or above.
