So softly and gently
Falls a winters snow
From heaven above
To the earth below
Peace is prevailing
His grace to bestow
Mercy is blessed
For each soul to know
Soul come to resting
Of prayer nice and slow
Being of stilling
Let the Spirit flow
Unique are the blessings
That we have to show
Giving, receiving
Of His love to sow
I need some time in Your Presence
I need some time dwelling in
In need some time of silence
A prayer now let us begin
A seed of realization
I’m blessed in this moment here
Transcendence into eternal
Through Spirit of being we share
Creator seeking created
A drawing of humility
Acceptance of love so completely
Here now just let me be
Cup of the overflowing
A calling of greater to know
Divinity, one of Your sharing
A need of Your filling to flow
As the sun slowly rises
Light to the earth
A blessing upon
This new day of birth
Bless those who’ll pass
Bless all be born
Bless all with joy
And all those forlorn
Fill all who hunger
Quench all that thirst
Humble the righteous
Lift up the cursed
Answer the seeking
With gifts of divine
Bless all with love
And this heart of mine
A miracle
To each it shines
The blessed gift
Of light divine
Ingredients
Of which unknown
Within our prayer
Its wisdom shown
And found within
A perfect love
Connection to
Our God above
Its purpose known
For us to shine
It’s sharing way
Through heart of mine
Grandpa was fading fast
I clung to him tight
And soul to soul
He shared this insight
Fear not beloved
We’ll be alright
Come now my little one
And follow the light
Wisdom that served me well
In darkest of night
Decisions of life
To choose what is right
Fear not beloved
We’ll be alright
Come now my little one
And follow the light
Moment my child was born
Her eyes shining bright
With Word, she trusted
I heard with delight
Fear not beloved
We’ll be alright
Come now my little one
And follow the light
And when my time has come
My last words recite
Trust in our savior
On my gravestone write
Fear not beloved
We’ll be alright
Come now my little one
And follow the light
Met a man today
Placed him in a bin
Through my judgment cast
Convicted him of sin
Hard now be my gaze
Cold within my heart
Take away his joy
Let him be set apart
A voice within my soul
Word of Spirit true
Rise now pharisee
A hypocrite of view
For so as you judge
So, will you be to
The measure which you measure
Be measured out to you
Falling to my knees
A sinner turns above
Let my heart be as Yours
Filled with only love
Gaze into still water
A stirring here this day
Draws attention to
A ripple in the way
Friend deep of the needing
An offering to pray
Compassion flows in love
A ripple in the way
Overwhelmed in darkness
A light to display
Humble act of kindness
A ripple in the way
When I hear You calling
Let my will obey
Oh Lord may my life be
A ripple of Your way
