Spirit May Speak Gently
Hearts and Minds
May we come with hearts
and minds prepared
seeking to be still
and seeking to listen
Help us to keep Him
at the centre of our lives
to be attentive
and open to His Spirit
For He may speak gently
into our hearts
and into the circumstances
of our everyday lives
This day and every day
Amen
— Elizabeth Mills, 2018 (source)
