Let me sing for the Beloved,
and let the Beloved sing for me:
songs of delight and satisfaction,
of discovery and renewal,
of harmony and hope.
Let me hum for the Beloved,
and let the Beloved hum for me:
lullabies of comfort and patience,
of possibility and peace,
of justice and love.
Let me chant for the Beloved,
and let the Beloved chant for me:
rhythms of change and declaration,
of perseverance and promise,
of fire and devotion.
Let me sing for the Beloved,
and let the Beloved sing for me:
ballads of faithfulness and wonder,
of the turn of sunshine and rain,
of joy that does not sunset.
Come, O Beloved, and sing with me.
