Eyes that can see the divine,
Ears that hear the bliss,
Voices that utter a name –
Allah, Vishnu, Shiva, Jesus
Waheguru, Parvardigar, Eloah, HaShem –
Witness the power that is the same.

God is one, present everywhere
Like an atom unseen in the air;
Passion for the one supreme,
Searching the pious dream
That every holy book reveals,
Takes us to the ultimate truth and peace.
*
Fine belief this is that we all
Have nurtured since antiquity,
For it unifies, it gives us courage;
Its cursed crusades aren’t a lie
And yet the belief only multiplies;
A believer sees the God inside.
*
Omnipotent, Omnipresent, Omniscient
This glorious idea assures the devotee
Of support, of comfort, of being home;
In this grand scheme you’re not alone,
A guide walks by your side – this belief
Shows the seeker an end they hope.
