A prayer
High King of Heaven,
You stretch out the skies like a curtain
And lower the canopy of gentle night
To cool the heat of the day.
May your peace, dark, velvety and starlit,
Descend
To calm the wild beating of my heart,
That I may be still.
~ by Pat Robson, from A Celtic Liturgy, p. 1-2
Podcast tip
If you like listening to podcasts, here’s one with a Christmas theme, entitled God is not nowhere in the world, featuring Jason Micheli, posted on the Mockingbird website.
The other talks from this year’s Mockingbird Tyler Conference are good too (see uploads dated 11.4.2022).
Another tip
Sing “Be thou my vision” reflectively, paying attention to the references to heart and “High King of Heaven”.
And enjoy this acoustic version of Jon and Valerie Guerra’s Christmas themed song, “Lord, remind me”.
