Rosemary’s Blessing

Oh, God who is love,

Help me to love others as You love them

And as You love me. 

Help me to see in those who love me most,

    Rosemary’s Blessing:

    it’s all a matter of surrender.
    this one truth i’ve come to know.
    nothing can be taken from you
    once you’re willing to let go.

    all the riches we have gathered
    all the treasure that we seek,
    all the earth and sky and oceans,
    have been promised to the meek.

    so, dance within the tune allotted,
    whether it be brief or long,
    pausing not to mark the measures;
    rejoicing ever in the song.

     Rosemary's Blessing of The Week

     Another fresh new year is here …
         Another year to live!
    To banish worry, doubt, and fear,
         To love and laugh and give!

    This bright new year is given me
         To live each day with zest …
    To daily grow and try to be
         My highest and my best!

    I have the opportunity
         Once more to right some wrongs,
    To pray for peace, to plant a tree,
         And sing more joyful songs!
