Now is a gift

The Past is history

The Future is mystery

Now is a gift

That is why it is called The Present

Ours is a simple faith

Ours is a simple faith
Life is a short embrace
Heaven is in this place
Every day

Hope is the ground we till
Make each day what you will
Thankful for dreams fulfilled
Every day

No room in this heart for fear
No judgement day drawing near
Trust that inner voice you hear
Every day

Life’s not a goal or race
Its about heart and faith
And living a life of grace
Every day

Ours is a simple faith
Life is a short embrace
Heaven is in this place
Every day

Hope is the ground we till
Make each day what you will
Thankful for dreams fulfilled
Every day

Trust is an open hand
Making an honest stand
Rooted here in the land
Every day

Living the mystery
Seeking the harmony
Here between you and me
Every day

Ours is a simple faith
Life is a short embrace
Heaven is in this place
Every day

Hope is the ground we till
Make each day what you will
Thankful for dreams fulfilled
Every day

lyrics from song composed and sung by Mustard's Retreat

I must've done something...

I must've been Ghandi or Buddah

or someone like that,

I must've saved lives by the hundreds

everywhere I went.

I must've brought rest to the restless,

fed the hungry too,

I must've done something great

to get to be here,

now,

with you.


Thanks to Cheryl Wheeler for this verse of gratitude, slightly adapted.
