How softly sinks the sun into
the placid, patient ocean;
No need for sound and noise undue,
no chaos and commotion.
How quietly flikers every star,
to light the darkest night;
No fickle flashing from afar,
No need for a bright light.
How calmly does the moonlight glow,
Its soothing rays enlighten;
No garish, gaudy nighttime show
No need to shock and frighten.
Lord, let Your radiance shine in me,
Let me live thus... silently.
