What the Gift of Life Begins, the Gift of Grace Completes

Breathe in, o soul--
by Father, Son and Holy Ghost--
the breath of life/
the breath of God
(as of a rushing mighty wind)
deep into thy body nostril.

And as that breath blows where it list,
hear, o soul, the sound thereof--
a still small voice:
Except a man be born again,
he cannot see the kingdom of God.
