Measure the flame, but do not call
the measure all the fire.
Name every bird, but leave it room
to fly beyond the name.
No ears is not an argument;
make silence fit for listening.
Tool made by hand may turn on hand;
let song teach hand to loosen.

Performance note: congregation holds the last C longer than the score asks. Not error. Hymn needs one thing metric cannot own.
