1. Prayer is the greatest gift with which God blessed His Son at his creation. ²It was then what it is to become; the single voice Creator and creation share; the song the Son sings to the Father, Who returns the thanks it offers Him unto the Son. ³Endless the harmony, and endless, too, the joyous concord of the Love They give forever to Each Other. ⁴And in this, creation is extended. ⁵God gives thanks to His extension in His Son. ⁶His Son gives thanks for his creation, in the song of his creating in his Father’s Name. ⁷The Love They share is what all prayer will be throughout eternity, when time is done. ⁸For such it was before time seemed to be.

2. To you who are in time a little while, prayer takes the form that best will suit your need. ²You have but one. ³What God created one must recognize its oneness, and rejoice that what illusions seemed to separate is one forever in the Mind of God. ⁴Prayer now must be the means by which God’s Son leaves separate goals and separate interests by, and turns in holy gladness to the truth of union in his Father and himself.

3. Lay down your dreams, you holy Son of God, and rising up as God created you, dispense with idols and remember Him. ²Prayer will sustain you now, and bless you as you lift your heart to Him in rising song that reaches higher and then higher still, until both high and low have disappeared. ³Faith in your goal will grow and hold you up as you ascend the shining stairway to the lawns of Heaven and the gate of peace. ⁴For this is prayer, and here salvation is. ⁵This is the way. ⁶It is God’s gift to you.
