Divine Wisdom




Divine Wisdom, I love Thee unto folly. I am Thy lover.
Thou alone in this world I seek, Thou alone I desire.
I am a man gone mad with love, forever chasing Thee.

Tell me who Thou art, for I am half blind.
I can discern only that Thou art a secret I must fathom.
Show Thyself fully to my soul which dies for love of Thee.

Where dost Thou live, Wisdom Divine?
Must I cross continents or seas to find Thee,
Or fly across the skies?
I am ready to go wherever Thou art,
Not counting the costs, to possess Thee.


-- St. Louis Marie Grignion de Montfort
