• Oratio: Becoming Returning

  Eternal sustainer
  the beat of my heart
  the life in my breath
  flowers grow
  of your goodness
  trees fall at your will
  we are saved
  by your mercy
  your word spoke
  life into existence
  your word speaks
  life into existence
  should you cease
  to think of us
  we would cease to be
  every moment
  heartbeat
  breath
  thought
  a generous gift
  of grace made manifest
  from you we are becoming
  to you we are returning
