Hush now, distractions, speak no more. Lord, let me love you evermore. With love that lasts a lifetime and into infinity. Reveal to me the love of the Trinity. Lord, never remove me from your presence. So that I may wear the sweetness of your fragrance. Lift me up from the darkened night. Breathe on me and give me sight. Your cross has borne my sins, it's true. Empty me of me for more of you. Speak to me, oh Holy One. Never let go till the work is done. Revive dead bones with a holy fire. Let us love with the love you require. Teach us your ways, oh Holy One. Until we shine brighter than the sun. Shine bright, oh children, shine bright. And love the Lord your God with all your might. - ### 12/11/###
