Everything around me:
the mountains and the air,
the forests and the streams,
the lake and the sky,
my family and friends;
everything around helps me, Lord,
believe in you,
trust in you
and put my hope in you...
Of course it's not always been so,
and I have friends even now
who struggle to find you,
whose faith is fragile
whose trust is doubtful,
whose hope hangs just by a thread...
I've been there, Lord - and may be again,
so help me remember and never forget:
I believe in the sun
even when it’s not shining.
I believe in love
even when I don’t feel it.
I believe in spring
in the dead of winter.
I believe in peace
in the midst of war.
I believe in the dawn
when midnight tolls.
I believe in your word
when I cannot hear it.
I believe in you, Lord,
even when you are silent...
I thank you, Lord,
for the faith I have,
for my hope and my trust in you
and I pray the same
for those who long
for the peace that's yours to give...
Protect me, Lord, while I'm awake
and watch over me while I sleep
that awake, I might keep watch with you
and asleep rest in your peace...
Amen.

I believe in the sun even when it’s not shining.
I believe in love even when I don’t feel it.
I believe in God even when God is silent.
