our faith enlivens prayer creed...

wings of a dove

kisses feathery as snowflakes
like heavenly sent sweet magic

under rooftops sparkling with snow

a little child so meek and mild

in southern Georgia warm and wild

(a meditative ballad)


a signal shown
in silence sown

Searching like strangers in the night
they met each other, a look, a smile.

their inner voice directs the light.

They met each other, a look,...

It’s a sin worse than extortion,
Snuffing innocent lives uncared;

Expecting love, they’re unprepared
For the...

Father, my joy,
nought can destroy.

Unveil my path, may my heart shine
bright, despite the darkness of day.
Consume me, may love guide my way,
so all troubles, become benign.

Bright despite the darkness of day,
my gifts, oh gracious Lord,...

God’s amazing grace surrounds me
I miss you so,...

The stars skinny-dip in the sea
And...

I carry the cross all day long
my heart and mind they’re not so strong
it left me lonely and upset.

I carry the cross all...

He missed her so
Why did she go?

She thought about him night and day
For it had been a million years
At least it felt that way in tears
But still she loved him anyway
