Enjoy!

A world silent as sighs speaks ever more the sound of a thankful soul.

Quiet always has something to say. – Torri Horness

Notes On The Way Series – Part 1

Take this quiet moment.
It is yours.
But pay attention,
for (ironic as it may be)
quiet always has
something to say.

The soundless sun settles on skin,
warms you to the bone –
it’s known you all these
years and loves you still.
Isn’t it amazing to recall
the marvellous days we’ve seen
under it’s good hearted gaze?

These moments soften us to life:
book in hand, dog at feet,
wild living waters a couple
breaths away, family near,
and the future bright as ever.

A world silent as sighs speaks ever more
the sound of a thankful soul.

Thank you Pktfuel, once again! 

let this be my prayer.

[Verse 1]
Let me be filled
With Kindness, and compassion for the One
The One for whom You loved, and gave Your Son
For humanity; increase my love

[Chorus]
Help me to love with open arms, like You do
A love that erases all the lines, and sees the truth
Oh that when they look in my eyes, they would see You
Even in just a smile; they would feel the Father's love

[Verse 2]
Oh how He loves us
From the homeless, to the famous, and in between
You formed us, You made us carefully
'Cause in the end; we're all Your children

[Chorus]
So help me to love with open arms, like You do
A love that erases all the lines, and sees the truth
Oh that when they look in my eyes, they would see You
Even in just a smile; they would feel the Father's love

[Bridge]
Let all my life, tell of who You are
And the wonder of, Your never-ending love
Let all my life, tell of who You are
You're wonderful, and such a good Father

Let all my life, tell of who You are
And the wonder of, Your never-ending love
Let all my life, tell of who You are
You're wonderful, and such a good Father
You're wonderful, and such a good Father

[Chorus]
Help me to love with open arms, like You do
A love that erases all the lines, and sees the truth
Oh that when they look in my eyes, they would see You
Even in just a smile; they would feel the Father's love ...
