let there be light
let there be wonder
let there be peace like no other
let there be tenderness
let there be joy
let there be deep
belly
laughter
let there be candles
burning
in the evening
bread for breaking
and cups full of time
to linger long –
together
let there be glory
grit and grace
and let there be love
above all
for love is the house
we are building.
