“Prayer At the Threshold”

O Christ, Flame of Uncreated Light,

You who descend into the marrow of silence,

You who ascend beyond the firmament of stars,

hold me in the stillness between breath and breath.

Let not the shadows claim me as their own,

for You have shattered their dominion,

and clothed the grave in Your brightness.

As I fall into Your keeping,

let my last word be Your Name,

and my last silence be Your song.
