How long have you studied
The language of love
For it flows from you
Always with grace?
How long have you spoken
In tongues of kindness
For you have mastered
The art with ease?
How long have you known
The voice of the Spirit
For your life speaks
In phrases of communion?
Your words invite peace
Wherever life takes you
Fluently spoken to each heart
With no need of translation.
Teach me that I may embrace
These languages you speak
And may we walk side by side
With a song in our hearts
Spreading hope and joy.
