Read Luke 7:31-35.
we who wish upon a star forget the star we wish upon
and waiting for the star at night forget the sun at day
waiting for the perfect song, we never join the dance
wondering if it’s okay to cry, we never take the chance
to find wisdom in the flow, where serenity speaks yet
we flee from wisdom and fly towards clickbait
dazed like insects toward electric fury
crazed like rabbits in a frantic hurry
the way has shown us to drink with the sinners
when ego and id tells us to keep with our tribe
tear down the walls, build a bridge of hope
climb out of your tower or let down the rope
and open our eyes to the world around us while
the real star shines bright above our heads
free to cry till our bodies shaken
free to dance like kevin bacon
Pray
Mother God, reveal yourself to us as you desire to be experienced and help us to recognize your presence both in the light and in the night. Amen.
