Our God is a refuge,
an almighty tower,
our help everlasting
in every dark hour.
Although the earth trembles
and oceans may roar,
through all of our trials,
He reigns evermore.
The Lord, God Almighty is with us,
steadfast like a fortress.
Be still, and remember He is God;
exalted is He.
Come, witness the Lord's works,
He makes war to cease.
He comforts the nations,
and brings the world peace.
Though storms rage around us,
and lightning may flare,
though pestilence plague us,
He'll always be there.
The Lord, God Almighty is with us,
steadfast like a fortress.
Be still, and remember He is God;
exalted is He.
Based upon Psalm 46
May be sung to the tune of "Chariots of Fire Main Theme" by Vangelis
Star Eyes
Something calming, something erotic,
Hot Sideritis tea in a gleaming teacup
That sings sweetly to me, of lands exotic.
Seeing all the other white villas in Greece,
Lying still on an angelic rug with you.
Listening to the great music of Vangelis!
Evermore,
Panagiota
*Sideritis is Greek mountain tea*
