Interfaith Hymn 08. Praise Poem by Michael Maxwell Steer

While we praise the source of life
the birds as well give voice,
coming with overflowing hearts
from joyfulness and choice.

Each day we live, with gratitude
let's heed our inner sense
that speaks of hope & resurrection
in the present tense.

Let us open to the love
we need to bring to others
if we're to share this patch of earth
and live in peace together.

Life is an ever-giving spring:
the spirit ever flowing
shows there's supra-rational knowing -
that tells us where we're going.
