Living paths, full of light,
Flat path now, without hail,
No harm has been done or will be done.
Lord of the winds
Wrap me in your mantle
And with your gaze, look at me and
Those eyes of heaven
They will make my path
Become light and tender
At once
Lord of the seas
Owner of the waves that
on a full moon ago
High tide,
Lord, it surrounds me
In a mantle of love
And in every breath, I
Gives love
Lord of life, of light
And of grace,
Lord, to my soul
You give your glory,
Lord of gift,
Of love found
Anywhere
From this future...
Lord you take us
In clouds and breezes in
waters of love
For loving you.
Mr. Bonanza, Mr.
Of hope,
Lord you take us
to eternity,
Lord, in Your Hands
Roses are souls.
and the light of heaven
It makes them shine
Lord of encounters
Beloved, love to be infinite
May you never forget to look
my look,
Nor listen to words that
From the soul, they come...
For being YOU forever
Who guides my speaking?
Oh Lord, beloved creator.
Poem SEÑOR DE LOS ENCUENTROS (originally written).
Camino vivo, lleno de luz,
Sendero llano ya, sin pedrisco,
Sin daño que se haga o por hacer.
Señor de los vientos
Envuelveme en tu manto
Y con tu mirada mirame y
Esos ojos de cielo
Harán que mi sendero
Se haga liviano y tierno
A la vez
Señor de los mares
Dueño de las olas que
en luna llena hace
Pleamar,
Señor ,que me envuelve
En manto de amores
Y en cada suspiro me
Da el amar
Señor de la vida, de luz
Y de gracia,
Señor que a mí alma
Tu gloria regalas,
Señor de regalo,
De amor encontrados
En cualquier lugar
De este devenir…
Señor que nos llevas
En nubes y brisas en
Aguas de amores
Por amarte a TI.
Señor de bonanza, señor
De esperanza,
Señor que nos llevas
A la eternidad,
Señor que en Tus Manos
Las rosas son almas…
Y la luz de cielo
Las hace brillar
Señor de los encuentros
Amado, amor de ser infinito
Que nunca olvides mirar
Mi mirar,
Ni escuchar palabras que
Desde alma salen…
Por ser TU por siempre
Quien guíe mi hablar.
Oh Señor, amado creador
