In a world where inequality
Is measured out in bullets and baubles
In a world where human frailty
Is tempered with violence and troubles
What hope for a future place
Where the human race
Finds love and grace?
Time to turn back on that road
Ignorance and hate is a heavy load
Best to leave it now
Here, at the gates of hell
I looked for love everywhere
I looked for love everywhere
In houses of stone and prayer
And when I thought it was lost for good
It seems it should
Return here
To the trees and the grass
To the flowers and the fruit
In the rain, in the sun
And I am at one
Here, in this garden is where I have begun
To find out what love is
In houses of stone and prayer
And when I thought it was lost for good
It seems it should
Return here
To the trees and the grass
To the flowers and the fruit
In the rain, in the sun
And I am at one
Here, in this garden is where I have begun
To find out what love is
A Moment of Grace
Life's just a drop in the ocean
A single drumbeat in the wind's restless song
A spark lost in the sun's maelstrom
A moment of grace between the cradle and grave
A single drumbeat in the wind's restless song
A spark lost in the sun's maelstrom
A moment of grace between the cradle and grave
Focus words for meditation and contemplation
constant ~ unchanging, dependable, continuous
concord ~ inner balance and outer harmony
change ~ constructive personal growth; improvement
