From The Altar To The Stars

All of me I give to Thee,
O God of heaven and earth.
That I may shine as sparkling wine,
Or a jewel of infinite worth.

Take my hand to tour the Land,
The realm of the Most High.
Then near to me shall your Spirit be,
And the Son will too draw nigh.


Now lift me up to drink the cup
Of power and praise and glory,
So abundant life despoils strife,
That it may be my story.

O let there be a place for me
Upon a brilliant star.
There I shall dine with One, Divine;
Gone every prison bar.

- J. Pecoraro
