May we still, our hearts fall silent
in a moment’s hesitation, when storms grow violent.
Fill your heart with hope and with praise,
know and believe that God knows the ways.

There’s so much for us, to behold and to hold,
how many hours would pass as we watch us unfold?
Time is uncertain, so throw away those doubts about tomorrow,
for they bring much discomfort, and then yesterday its sorrow.

Learn to hold what’s precious and dear,
just open your eyes, in the now and the here,
you’ll see many miracles, about them you’ll hear,
how many were broken, and now whole and so clear.

There’s so much for us to love and to hold,
every moment more precious than dust turned to gold,
take the chance to do what is right,
a single prayer, can make a flicker flame bright.
