Theme “Peace”
Words before silence
We pause again in shared silence, that instead of speaking words from our mouths, we may speak love from our hearts.
… We share in that good silence which requires no words.
… We pause now in that shared good silence which requires no words.
… We pause now in that shared good silence which needs no words.
Let
Inner peace
Let us be quiet in our hearts as is…
The still cormorant watching from the sunlit rock,
The tranquil sea fret stealing over the water,
The gentle wave caressing the shingle,
The sea campion motionless in her gown of white.
For these are the mute harbingers of a loving God…
And the promise of
O genderless engenderer
Flame of life at the heart of all things.
Holy, holy, holy are your names.
Your republic of informed hearts is always within us and around us.
Your mysterious way unfolds before us,
as matter and spirit dance together to create life.
May the finite tell its stories to the infinite,
and may the infinite nourish
Peace
