The Three Around Me

The Three Around Me

The Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.
Bring rest to the laborers as a mother to her children:

Mother of the rotating  earth-
Visit the moon as we sleep under your songs.
Bring comfort for the lonely.

Mother of the tilting  earth-
Turn me toward the sun to heal me,
And to awaken my soul.

 Mother of the orbiting  earth-
Bring life to the lifeless,
Birthing us from this womb into the heavens;
controlling all our days; all yielding
to the Father, Son, and Spirit.

Teach me your way of submission found in all creation.

 -Jacob Neria
