When you're next to me

I have been listening to the sountrack to the movie "A Mighty Wind" a lot lately. I think that it's best when you turn songs about lust turn them into songs about the love we have for God. Oh, glorious Song of Songs...

When I’m standing next to you
There’s a song to sing
I know everything’s feeling right

When I’m standing next to you
Steeple bells ring
Only good things Do I see
When you’re next to me

When I hold your hand in mine
Different world wakes
A new morning breaks with the sun

When I hold your hand in mine
Children's dreams take flight
Through a star lit nightThat’s what I see
When you’re next to me

(Chorus)This love for you I’m feeling
Has a power that is healing
It can mend the darkest hour
With glorious light
When I taste your lips so sweet
I see beggars dine
And the sands of time up and stop

When I taste your lips so sweet
Black and white bend
Every dove lands at your feet
When you’re next to me

(Instrumental)

(Chorus)This love for you I’m feeling
Has a power that is healing
It can mend the darkest hour
With glorious light

When I’m lying next to you
I feel moonbeams burn
I see rainbows turning to gold

When I’m lying next to you
I hear Angels play
I see sweeter days
I see rivers wind
Through the end of time
I see hatred fall
From the highest hill
I see God’s good grace
Shining in your eyes
That’s what I see

When you’re next to me

28 OT B : Give!

Friends Peace be with you.  Generally around this time of year, priests give a sacrificial giving homily. I haven’t done one since coming to...
