Wondrous Array

Within folds of slumber by the light of evening stars
Take I the celestial chariot to vistas afar
Galaxies of splendor and wondrous array
Where day is night and night is day
Timeless motion of flight there be
Above the pulsing waves of the celestial sea
By stellar winds to the light of PRESENCE be told
This a vision of eternity in grace ever to behold.

...hold precious... The Wonder

What grasps the heart of a child
The wonder and delight of its BEING
The shimmer of light upon its hand
The warmth of the sun upon its brow
The touch of love upon its knowing soul
Hold precious the innocence
For it is but the wisdom of the ages
Hold precious the wonder
For it is the very breath of life itself.

Awakened Faith

the roots that feed you
the waters that bathe you
the fire that warms you
the air that breathes you
the vibration that sounds you
the light that illuminates you
such be the SPIRIT that is you.

Behold

behold the fire of galaxies afar
behold the brilliance of a distant star
passions of creation in beauty they be
cresting be the waves of a celestial sea
feel I the winds wild, carry they the call
behold the light, the PRESENCE the ALL.

Mormon Tabernacle Choir - Hallelujah, Christmas

So BE it...

A season of JOY ~ Hallelujah


Many a cause many a peace plea
Within our hearts from sea to sea
From shores, to mountains, to farm and field, vast and far
Love ever the light of each shining star
A season of JOY in pious celebration mark December days
And we in the embrace of spirit sing Hallelujah in PRAISE.


PEACE
