> Far into cosmic space I'll carry > My feeling heart; warm it shall grow > In fires wrought by sacred powers; > > In cosmic thoughts I'll weave > My own thinking; clear it shall grow > In light of life that ever is renewed; > > To depths of soul I'll guide > Devoted contemplation; strong it shall grow > For mankind's true and real goals; > > In God's tranquility I thus will strive > Through life's hard struggles and all cares > Prepare my self to be a higher self. > > Seeking the peace of joyful labours, > And sensing cosmic truth within my own, > I work towards fulfillment of man's task; > > Then may I live in hope, > Going towards my soul's own star > Who in the spirit realm appoints my place.
