Wherever one travels on this earth life surprises. Life surprises us even when our travels are inward, rhetorical, or merely philosophical. If we venture forth, life teaches us that the world is not flat, but rather all its ends connected.

A Hymn

Every morning we will raise
to our God our songs of praise.
Every morning we will raise
to our God our songs of praise.

With God's kind protection blessed,
sweet and deep has been our rest.
In the morning we will pray
God's protection for this day.

What this day will bring to pass,
gladness or sorrow we cannot guess.
You, who give the light divine,
shine on us, Christ Jesus, shine.

Then, when comes the dark of night,
all with in us still shall be bright;
you will bring your peace and love,
radient gifts sent down from above.
