[From Feb. 14, 2020 archive]
O God, you silence
the roaring of the seas,
the roaring of their waves,
the tumult of the peoples.
Silence the tumult in me.
The night is far gone,
the day is near.
I will lay aside
the works of darkness,
put on the armor of light.
Wherever I go, keep me;
do not leave me.
In Christ make me free,
and I will be free indeed.
