Stand Tall by the Water
Stand tall
by the water
know no fear or loneliness
let this love
cross you over
let this song
bid you well
by the water
know no fear or loneliness
let this love
cross you over
let this song
bid you well
Vanya wondered how he could best help this child, so pure in heart, to grow in the love of God. It was too early to SPEAK to him about God dwelling within him, so he simply encouraged him to sit still, to relax and concentrate his thoughts within. He was sure that, in the boy's open and expectant heart, the mystery would make itself known in its own way without the sounds of words... Vanya, for his part, tried to see into the depth of those wonderful eyes and, behind them, into the sanctuary of that child's heart where so clearly God was dwelling.
