Choral Music: “The Peace of Wild Things” Words: Wendell Berry. Music: Malcolm Dalglish
“When despair for the world grows in meand I wake in the night at the least soundin fear of what my life and my children's lives may be,I go and lie down where the wood drakerests in his beauty on the water, and the great heron feeds.I come into the peace of wild things who do not tax their lives with forethoughtof grief. I come into the presence of still water.And I feel above me the day-blind starswaiting with their light. For a timeI rest in the grace of the world, and am free.”

and your promise of a new creation. Guide us on our Lenten journey, we pray,
and kindle in us the fire of your Love. Amen.
