  5. Maker of the Earth.. 2 • Thank you, God, for in your keeping • I have rested safely here: • You have guarded me while sleeping • From all danger, pain and fear. • That the unrelenting foe • Could no cause my overthrow.

  11. A Morning Hours—Morgenstund • A morning hour, it’s snowing in the city • And summer’s final rose is sheathed in ice • The birch tree branches fluttering with blue jays • Like angels in a winter paradise.

  12. Morning Hour—2 • A restful time, for all our Lord created, • For corn and hedgehogs deep in winter holes • A time for memories that clatter by us • And move like naked branches black as coal.

  13. A Morning Hour—3 • Go slowly now, For Christ is walking with you • As he creates his kingdom in your view, • Where you can see your neighbor with his vision • And care for them as he has cared for you.

  14. A Morning Hour—4 • He’s near to you, his heart is where his Spirit • Awakens faith, and love and charity • So you can spread the light in winter’s darkness • He is the blessing you bring on your way.

  15. A Morning Hour—5 • Go quietly In these short days of winter • When nature rests and strength can be renewed • Until the sun returns into the heavens • And light makes branches blossom fresh and new.
