I love Jesus, who said to us: heaven and earth will pass away. When heaven and earth have passed away, my word will still remain. What was your word, Jesus? Love? Forgiveness? Affection? All your words were one word: Wakeup.
~ Antonio Machado from "Proverbs and Tiny Songs " in THE SOUL IS HERE FOR ITS OWN JOY
O sovereign angel, Wide-winged stranger above a forgetful earth, Care for me, care for me, Keep me unaware of danger And not regretful And not forgetful of my innocent birth.
