REJOICE ! for the Morning has dawned : The Truth has awakened us ; We have opened our eyes and, the dark night of error is no more. Long have we slept in matter and Sensation ; Long did we struggle in the painful nightmare of evil; But now we are awake in Spirit and Truth: We have found the Good, and the struggle with evil is ended: We slept, yet knew not that we slept: We suffered, yet knew not why we suffered: We were troubled in our dreaming, yet none could awake us, for all were dreaming like ourselves ; Then there came a pause in our dreaming ; Our sleep was stayed ; Truth spoke to us, and we heard ; And lo ! we opened our eyes, and saw. We slumbered and saw not; We slept and knew not; But now we are awake and see; Yea, we know we are awake because we have seen Holiness, and we love sin no more; We have beheld Truth, and error has ceased to attract us. Yea, we have seen the Truth ! James Allen
