The Divine Touch

Be with me, God, as I draw near,

your touch is neither harsh nor fleeting.

Your arms and heart are open,

filling me and infusing me

with your will and nature.

Be with me, God, as I draw near,

your touch is kind and gentle.

Always in all ways,

your embrace holds me and unwraps me,

life received and love surrendered.

Be with me, God, as I draw near,

your touch is careful and complete.

I yield with my whole being

to be one with you

endless and constant

Be with me, God, as I draw near,

your touch is life-giving and love-bearing.

In the movie "Harvey", Elwood P Dowd, played by Jimmy Stewart, explains coping with the world this way: "Years ago my mother used to say to me, she'd say, 'In this world, Elwood, you must be' - she always called me Elwood - 'In this world, Elwood, you must be oh so smart or oh so pleasant.' Well, for years I was smart. I recommend pleasant. You may quote me." Well, for years I was smart, oh so very smart, I too recommend pleasant - Trust the harmony
