It’s such a blessing
Of heart that’s content
To see this is such
A beautiful moment
To dwell fully here
To be, fully present
To know this is such
A beautiful moment
The joy of our life
To receive the love sent
To feel this is such
A beautiful moment
In eternities view
To see what life meant
To say it was such
A beautiful moment
A simple invitation
If the heart is willing
To bless the soul within
A moment of stilling
A simple decision
In faith of believing
Our Lords grace within
A moment of receiving
A simple surrender
In Spirit so freeing
To breathe deep within
A moment of being
A simple Word of love
Of overwhelming sense
Soaking of within
A moment of Presence
A simple prayer
Indwelling, internal
Of His peace within
A moment, eternal
What’s a sacred moment?
Simply to be aware
That God’s grace is present
Letting it appear
Is not complicated
Simply to be still
One of inner silence
Surrendering our will
Nothing to be earned
Simply to be free
Acknowledging the Spirit
Flowing here through me
Nowhere now to go
Simply to be here
For this is holy ground
Found within a prayer
A moment of sunrise
Of stunning beauty
A thousand words
Could not describe thee
A moment of silence
Of stillness to claim
A thousand songs
Could not sing the same
A moment of prayer
Completely adored
A thousand sweethearts
Could not love me more
A moment of Presence
With our God to be
With gift of one Word
Of eternity
The value of a moment
Sometimes we’ll never know
Until we gain perspective
Of memory to show
Snow angels in winter
Stars of a summers’ night
The smell of spring rain
Waves of oceans’ light
Let the Lord lead us
And show us the way
With vision of soul
To pause and to pray
It’s only when we see
Through eyes with His view
Allowing soul to capture
A moments’ value
It came to me
In my days last
My life went by
Just way to fast
Oh to return
To youth of past
Who rushed away
My moments’ vast
For time in prayer
Of moment cast
In wisdom let
Each moment last
From busyness
Let me now fast
With God to dwell
Until my last
Let’s share of a moment
Of predawn insight
One of transition
From darkness to light
Let’s be of a moment
All to release
Of blessed surrender
A soaking of peace
Let’s pray in this moment
With silence of Word
Of stilling the mind
And the soul be stirred
Let’s treasure this moment
Of one that we dwell
For one of your Presence
Is really lived well
The blessing to be
Of soul to revive
The solemn moment
When the day comes alive
The light of to be
Of beauty’s surprise
The holy moment
Of this day’s sunrise
The peace of to be
Of stillness conveying
The sacred moment
When creation’s praying
The love of to be
Is dwelling right here
Your Presence of moment
Of calling to share
Bring me to this moment
The soul to be aware
To be fully present
Right now, and right here
Bring me to my senses
To taste and feel and see
Of the abundant ways
That God is blessing me
Bring me to be grateful
For nothing I deserve
Let joy fill my heart
A turn to go and serve
Bring me to be humble
With His gifts to share
Reflection of His love
Shining everywhere
A prayer of the morning
Of the chapel within
How great are Your treasures
Of this way to begin
Into great silence
Our being is whole
The power of Presence
Embraces the soul
Light of reflection
Sets all aglow
The Sprit is swirling
Just love here to know
In stillness of time
It’s easy to see
How one drop of moment
Is eternity
