`Walden Woods: photo by Chuck Clough |
How peaceful this path,
softly shaded from the heat,
well worn by other's steps, a carpet
laid with joys and sorrows
spilled along the way to a grove,
deep in the woods,
where you, Lord,
with amazing grace and patience
wait for me...
How peaceful this velvet path
leading deeper, ever deeper,
int the forest of your myst'ry,
to a quiet, hidden, secret place
where you, Lord,
with amazing grace and patience
wait for me...
And come the day that finds me lost,
far from your secluded, leafy grove,
then beat a path within me
and beckon me to join you
in a softly shaded clearing
in the forest of my own heart
where you, Lord,
far from your secluded, leafy grove,
then beat a path within me
and beckon me to join you
in a softly shaded clearing
in the forest of my own heart
where you, Lord,
with amazing grace and patience
wait for me...
Amen.
