Sacred Silence: Preparation

Restore my soul, refresh my heart
Renew my life in every part
Reveal to me what sin remains
Then lead me to the cross again

Re-light the fire that burned so strong
Reminding me what You have done
My one request is to be changed
So lead me to the cross again

At the cross I'll find the way to live the life Your hand has made
So find me there, Lord, and help me stay in true surrender with You my Savior

***

The prospect of a day in sacred silence - the practice of solitude - is intimidating for a person such as I. As I prepare for this day to come, this simple song as my prayer, I desire only to find my way to the cross again.

Accept, O Lord, my thanks and praise for all that you have done for me. I thank you for the splendor of the whole creation, for the beauty of this world, for the wonder of life, and for the mystery of love. Above all, I thank you for your Son Jesus Christ; for the truth of His Word and the example of his life; for his steadfast obedience, by which he overcame death; and for his rising to life again, in which we are raised to the life of your kingdom. Amen.
