How can I say if I love God more,
or you, my dear friends?
When I want to hear Him laugh,
I tell you the joke.
When I want to ease His pain,
I offer you the balm.
Whenever you smile, I see Him;
whenever you sigh, I hear Him:
For if He is the Light
and you are His candles,
I need add but a spark of love –
and suddenly He appears.
