To Alex: Be now a guide in the night

Be now a guide in the night

Shine a light to those now blind

Be now a voice in the silence

And when all is quiet, sing to the night



Remember those who came before

Those who suffered the darkness

Look to the West and what lies there

A Light beckons on those shores



Raise now the healing staff

Wisdom and strength are yours

Speak now the word of power

Time is melting into nothing



When your sun has set

And your moon has faded

Call to me... call to me...

And I will hear and perceive



I will return to you and lift you up

I will speak those words not mine

And comfort will come to you

No fire of mine, but the Flame Imperishable



Let not memory fade and a love go unseen

For shadows call and a dark will summon

One shall be tempted and you must discern

There is a cry in the night, do you hear?



May strength and power forever be yours

And wisdom be written in  your heart

Never fear or doubt, the Holy Spirit is within

The Grace of God our Father be with you always



May it be
