As Man is now God once was

As God is now Man may become

As Man once was God may become

As God becomes Man Man becomes God

As God is now Woman may become

As Woman is now God may become

As becomes Man and Woman

Woman and Man becomes God

As God becomes Woman and Man

Man and Woman become Woman and Man

As become little children

As little children become God

Of such is the Kingdom of God

As the Kingdom of God becomes children

As children become Woman and Man

As Woman and Man become God

Become as little children

As God is now little children once were

As little children are now Man and Woman may become

Become Thou as the Salt of the Earth

As Salt is now God may become

As Man is now Salt once was

As Woman become Salt, Lot’s wife may become

As Salt once was, Man may become

As Salt is now, the Earth speaks from the dust

God is now

God is now

God is becoming

Becoming is God

As we all once were, we all once was

As we all are now, we all may become
