Deep Stillness

For you
Deep stillness of the silent inland
For you
Deep blue of the desert skies
For you
Flame red of the rocks and stones
For you
Sweet water from hidden springs.

From the edges
Seek the heartlands
And when you’re burnt by the journey
May the cool winds of the hovering Spirit
Soothe and replenish you
In the name of Christ, in the name of Christ.
