This closing prayer is inspired by a devotional by J Philip Newell, the former warden of the Iona Community, that I read throughout my pilgrimage. Special thanks for Richard Kentopp for the fun electric guitar parts!
lyrics
Thank you that there are always new beginnings among old endings. Thank you that there is always something more to learn and to see. Thank you for surprises in the midst of the ordinary. Thank you, thank you.
Thank you for the dawning of morning light breaking through the clouds. Thank you for the mystery that bore me from the dark. Thank you for your Grace that finds me and breaks down my walls. Thank you, thank you…
You Give Us Life...
Thank you that love finds us even at our most vulnerable. Thank you for the hope that seeps into our darkest nights. Thank you for you mercy that loves us at our most terrible, Thank you, thank you.
