#UULent: soul.

We had prepared this hymn, number 83 in our hymnal, for Sunday. Due to technical difficulties, we couldn’t play it, but I’m sure it will show up in a service at some point soon. It’s so prayerful. It nourishes and uplifts my soul in these times. Here are the lyrics so you can enjoy them and use them for a meditation or prayer yourself.

Winds be still.

Storm clouds pass and silence come.

Peace grace this time with harmony.

Fly, bird of hope, and shine, light of love,

and in calm let all find tranquility.

Bird fly high.

Lift our gaze toward distant view.

Help us to sense life’s mystery.

Fly high and far, and lead us each to see

how we move through the winds of eternity.

Light shine in.

Luminate our inward view.

Help us to see with clarity.

Shine bright and true so we may join our songs

in new sounds that become full symphony.
