Coupled with the thoughts that provoked the piece below, this really spoke to me this evening:
from a hymn by Fred Pratt Green
In the just reward of labor
God's will is done;
In the help we give our neighbor,
God's will is done;
In our world-wide task of caring
For the hungry and despairing,
In the harvests men are sharing,
God's will is done.
I don't know the proper attribution. If anyone does and will leave it for me, I'll correct this post. Thanks.
