To choose no worry, no anger
As I go about the day,
To be diligent in work, delighted in play,
To be grateful and kind to all I encounter,
To be an instrument of peace from hour to hour.
Listen, God is singing through the Elms, first as thunder, then as wind, then as trembling leaves and limb.
To choose no worry, no anger
As I go about the day,
To be grateful and kind to all I encounter,
To be an instrument of peace from hour to hour.
