Is there anyone among us
who doesn't long
for peaceful days and restful nights?
Anyone who doesn't hope
for just one carefree day,
an evening filled with peace?
Anyone who doesn't ache
to be accepted, known and loved
- no strings attached?
We're more the same than different:
our similarities
outnumber our disparities.
From the same place deep within
we all want, need and hunger
for the same bread of love
and only those who hunger so
can feed another's heart.
Good God,
help me to see, to know and nourish
the hearts of those around me
help me to see, to know and nourish
the hearts of those around me
and open wide my heart to all
who'd love, feed and nourish me.
Amen.
