I will bring a cup of water, here's the best that I can offer In the dusk of coming night, there is evidence of light With the patterning of the rain, let us bow as if in grace Consider all the ways we heal and how a heart can break
Oh, abide with me where it's breathless and it's empty Please abide with me and we' ll pass the evening gently Stay awake with me we' ll listen more intently To something wordless and remaining, sure and ever changing In the quietness of now
Let us ponder the unknown, what is hidden and is whole And finally learn to travel at the speed of our souls Raise a little water, a spirit cutting through Always changing, always making all things new
Oh, abide with me where it's breathless and it's empty Please abide with me and we' ll pass the evening gently Stay awake with me we' ll listen more intently To something wordless and remaining, sure and ever changing In the quietness of now
There are things that cannot prove and still somehow I know It's like a message in a bottle that some unseen hand has thrown You don't have to be afraid, you don't have to walk alone I don't know, but I suspect that it will feel like home
Oh, abide with me where it's breathless and it's empty Please abide with me and we' ll pass the evening gently Stay awake with me we' ll listen more intently To something wordless and remaining, sure and ever changing In the quietness of now
