Rising Up
Loving God,
Let all my work
Arise from You
Let all my noticing
Arise from You
Let all my hope
Arise from You
Let all my wonder
Arise from You
Let all my delight
Arise from You
Let all my gratefulness
Arise from You
Let all my words
Arise from You
Let all my passion
Arise from You
Let all my peace
Arise from You
Let all my joy
Arise from You
Let all my desire
Arise from You
Let all my love
Arise from You.
For no good thing,
No worthwhile dream
Can ever flourish
Apart from rising up
In, from, and through
You, O Love of Life.
