There is nothing that is beyond "That"
There is nothing of this world that is
separate from "That"
All that this world has to offer
is nothing without knowing "That"

Go all the way to "Truth"
O beloved friend
Do not stop anywhere
Go all the way to "That"
O beloved friend

May Grace be with you
May your eyes and heart be clear
to receive Grace
And guide you through

Go all the way
O beloved friend
Go all the way
