Connecting in the Ten, Adhering to the Creator
I was born with a heart that only takes,
A will that runs, a mind that breaks.
Thought I could walk this road alone,
Every step just harder stone.
Then ten hearts gathered, side by side,
Not fixed, not clean, but honest-eyed.
And in that place I finally knew:
There is no path outside the few.
Not less than ten — the gate appears,
Where truth survives, not private fears.
No secret climb, no hidden way,
The Ten’s the place I learn to stay.
Connecting in the Ten — that’s where we stand
Adhering to the Creator — hand in hand
Not in my strength, not in my sight,
But where our cracks invite the Light.
From Ten to Ten, the World Kli sings
That’s where the Creator is revealed in things
You made me broken, made me need,
Not answers first, but friends indeed.
The Light is whole, it never bends,
The vessel’s built from wounded ends.
I don’t correct the Upper force,
I fix the space that blocks its course.
Between our hearts, when we agree,
The lack becomes the place to be.
Connecting in the Ten — that’s how I see
Adhering to the Creator — through the we
No Light without a place to rest,
No prayer alone can pass the test.
From Ten to Ten, the World Kli grows
That’s where the Upper Goodness flows
What stops us isn’t hate or pain,
It’s holding tight to what is “mine.”
The beams I built to guard my name
Were never truth, just fear in frame.
So I sell the beams, let them fall,
Lay my opinions on the wall.
Not to be right, not to be strong,
Just to belong where I belong.
Connecting in the Ten — above my pride
Adhering to the Creator — nowhere to hide
I bow my head, release my claim,
And find myself inside the flame.
From Ten to Ten, one common plea
That’s where the Creator waits for me
You stand today — all of you,
One fate, one law, one work to do.
If one falls down, we feel the weight,
If one ascends, we elevate.
Arvut binds us, bone to bone,
No soul completes this work alone.
I guard your heart, you carry mine,
This mutual law beyond all time.
Prayer is born where words run dry,
Where we can’t connect — yet still we try.
Not “give me,” not “let me see,”
But “give us strength for unity.”
A prayer of many splits the sky,
No perfect speech, no alibi.
Just one desire, stripped and true:
Let us make space — for You.
Connecting in the Ten — we make a place
Adhering to the Creator — face to face
Not in the clouds, not far above,
But in responsibility and love.
From Ten to Ten, the World Kli cries
Reveal Yourself between our lives
We make a covenant each day,
Each moment ego wants its way.
To choose the friends, again, again,
To cleave to You — through them — amen.
From this one Ten to all that be,
One breath, one soul — the World Kli.
And there at last, no myth, no scheme:
The Creator lives between.
