2. We are one in the Spirit, we are one in the Lord We are one in the Spirit, we are one in the Lord And we pray that our unity will one day be restored And they'll know we are Christians by our love, by our love Yeah they'll know we are Christians by our love

5. In a world where all is borrowed And time like elusive dust seems to Just slip through our fingers

6. All we really have are these precious moments
Where we can make fertile the soil
In the garden of our hearts
That love may make its home
And here the mortal seed may flourish

7. Only love can free us from the womb of time
For life... like a magnificent mysterious cloud holds
Its shape and from only long enough for us to blink

8. And all our precious memories are but shadows of
Time that will drift away like fallen returning
To the emptiness from which they came Thus we are, like innocent children flowering
In the garden of souls

10. Let us again listen to the silence of this sacred space
Let us again listen to the silence of this sacred space. A space made ready for us by willing hands.

12. May we give thanks for all the silences in our lives: the silence of sunrise, the silence of midst on the lake, the silence at the end of a story, the silence between notes of music, the silence between us here…
