You Are Loved

For this one moment Know only that you are loved That you are safe, and whole and loved Know that you belong here Here among us, here upon this earth In your body However tired, or broken Your heart may be Whatever fear, disappointment, anger you carry For this hour know you are not alone Feel the presence of others Surrounding you, Breathing beside you, and with you, Discovering together the way our voices rise, and fall together In harmony, in hope Claim here a resilient freedom The choice for love, for light, to live with joy and gratitude and praise as a form of resistance Already we are organizing Come, let us worship, together
