 Spirit of Life
Back to Full Blog  

This is one of my favorite hymns and I thought that I would post the words, which is why it sends me. Words and music by Carolyn McDade 1935 and copyrighted in 1992 by Unitarian Universalists

Spirit of life
come unto me.
Sing in my heart all the
Stirrings of compassion.

Blow in the wind, rise in the sea,
move in the hand, giving life the shape
of justice.

Roots hold me close; wings set me free;
Spirit of life, come to me, come to me.

I love that song n.lynn.
I have moments while
sitting in church where
there music just touches
my heart and tears pour
down my cheeks. I always
feel so silly, but it is true.

Much love to you on this Sunday Morning.
Keep warm there!

The words are beautiful and comforting, n. They wrap themselves around me like a protective blanket. Thank-you for sharing.

Lynn:

Beautiful words to lighten the soul ...nothing like a spiritual breeze and in the case of u guys in the northern latitude, a WARM one.
So nice meeting you Lynn! I'm surprised we haven't crossed paths b4. I'll bet it is cold in the barn. I've been playing with cartoons the past couple of days but am normally imersed in paint. Ive booked marked you and hope we have many future chats about the joys of art...maybe after the thaw Pop'

Pop, thanks again for stopping by, it means a lot to me. There are a lot of writers who just write and don't visit much.
Thanks for the bm.

Stopping by to see if you have warmed up any? We have another 8 - 14 inches of snow on the way for tomorrow......personally I'm beginning to think we must have slept through a few seasons and have plowed right back into winter again! Hope you're staying warm!
