Night and day (Vol 3 No 6)


God of the day and God of every night,

God of deep darkness and of brilliant light,

We join creation as we come to pray

Praising the beauty of both night and day.

 

Each morning brings the colours of the day,

For without light there would be no display;

Then evening comes with softness of the night;

Darkness arrives with hushed and calm delight.

 

Stillness of night, activities of day

Each give a gift to our unfolding way;

Sounds of the day then silence of the night

Can be the times when we gain new insight.

 

God of the day and God of every night,

God of deep darkness and of brilliant light,

We stand in awe, the mystery is at play;

Thankful for graces from both night and day.
