STILLNESS

STILLNESS

Be still and know the planets vast
Align for you in harmony.
A gentle meditation will take you by the hand
And wisely lift you out of this strange and troubled land.

You are one with God and you harness your power,
Joined with the forces of spirit and fire.

In sacred communion with angels and saints,
Caught in the crossroads of hope and desire.

You are home in your mansion and learning to trust,
The lessons you learn light your way,
And when the flesh weakens and turns into dust,
The spirit survives strong and brave.

In the stillness I find him, the Buddha, the Christ,
He helps me to soar, my soul taking flight,
Crossing the thresholds in vistas of light,
Into celestial gardens sublime,
Hurling through space and soaring through time.

Be still and know the planets vast
Unite for you in harmony.
A gentle meditation will take you by the hand
And lead you to the simple truths,
Those precious grains of sand.
