I will bring a cup of water, here's the best that I can offer
In the dusk of coming night, there is evidence of light
With the patterning of the rain, let us bow as if in grace
Consider all the ways we heal and how a heart can break
Oh, abide with me where it's breathless and it's empty
Please abide with me and we' ll pass the evening gently
Stay awake with me we' ll listen more intently
To something wordless and remaining, sure and ever changing
In the quietness of now
Let us ponder the unknown, what is hidden and is whole
And finally learn to travel at the speed of our souls
Raise a little water, a spirit cutting through
Always changing, always making all things new
Oh, abide with me where it's breathless and it's empty
Please abide with me and we' ll pass the evening gently
Stay awake with me we' ll listen more intently
To something wordless and remaining, sure and ever changing
In the quietness of now
There are things that cannot prove and still somehow I know
It's like a message in a bottle that some unseen hand has thrown
You don't have to be afraid, you don't have to walk alone
I don't know, but I suspect that it will feel like home
Oh, abide with me where it's breathless and it's empty
Please abide with me and we' ll pass the evening gently
Stay awake with me we' ll listen more intently
To something wordless and remaining, sure and ever changing
In the quietness of now
