Be Still


 

Be Still

The stillness of the snow at night;

The stillness of the gentle rain.

The stillness of the owl in flight;

The stillness of a silent pain.


The stillness of the leaves that glide;

The stillness of the twilight moon.

The stillness of the tears that slide;

The stillness of the graveyard’s gloom.


The stillness of the morning glow;

The stillness of the path beyond.

The stillness of:  be still and know

That I am God.

Earth Teach Me


 


Earth teach me Faith

As the sun also rises.


Earth teach me Hope

To meet a new tomorrow.

Earth teach me Love

As you’ve cradled us from birth to death.


Earth teach me Humility

In the face of all eternity.
