THE WIND OF GRACES (Doug Lang)

May your feet forever lead you
Where your heart is bound to be
May your soul be lifted by serendipity
May strangers turn out to be friends
You knew somewhere before
May the wind of graces find you
Through the cracks beneath your door

Know by your needs the road to where
You'll sing your true desire
May your heart become the stone
That's broken by the fire
Know that spirit tends to those
Of generosity
What fills the eye will fill the soul
We're fed by how we see

Your were born into a fullness
And your plenty shall remain
Your body bears the wish of those
You may never see again

Your children are a faith and prayer
You'll live beyond your death
Your grandmother goes on breathing
In your own grandchild's breath
Your song will go on, beautiful
As that of any bird
May your soul never be lonely
May you always keep your word

repeat first verse
