be here, be now

Have you ever wondered about what it means to truly be hospitable? Or why hospitable and despicable sound so similar? No? Okay then, we'll leave it.

 

How about I share with you today some song lyrics. A blog I read semi regularly 'One Bright Corner' has this as their 'theme song', the reason behind why they entitled their blog as it is. I quite like the lyrics which is why I am sharing it with you today. If you follow the link above you will also get a brief history lesson behind the song and the person who wrote it.

Do not wait until some deed of greatness you may do,
Do not wait to shed your light afar;
To the many duties ever near you now be true,
Brighten the corner where you are.

Refrain
Brighten the corner where you are!
Brighten the corner where you are!
Someone far from harbor you may guide across the bar;
Brighten the corner where you are!

 

Just above are clouded skies that you may help to clear,
Let not narrow self your way debar;
Though into one heart alone may fall your song of cheer,
Brighten the corner where you are.

 

Here for all your talent you may surely find a need,
Here reflect the bright and Morning Star;
Even from your humble hand the Bread of Life may feed,
Brighten the corner where you are.

God Bless
