Sunset in Oceano, California, August 2013

Loving God,
it is you who makes our hearts sing.

With the dawn of each new morning,
it is your melodies of love that fill the air.

In the midst of our busy days,
it is your notes of grace that sustain us.

As we lie down to sleep at night,
it is your song that whispers near our beating hearts.

Grant us this day the peace and strength
that comes with listening to your music
and singing the melodies of your love.  Amen.
