Feeling so deeply, so terribly deeply,
so ultimately terribly deeply,
everything in life but you seems wrong;
yet feeling so deeply, joyfully deeply,
so majestically joyfully deeply
my body craves to explode in song.
No wonder I gaze in wonder at you,
no wonder my eyes at once praise you,
yet glance away as though gazing too long
at blazing sun’s exploding body. It’s true
when I see you our world seems at peace,
when you smile, our world seems healed;
and I smile, all fears seeming released
from fear, your mystery no longer concealed.
I feel so deeply, so terribly deeply,
so majestically, joyfully deeply.
