When will we ever put an end to the strife? Some folks gave smiles and others gave stares On lonely street corners, in laundromat chairs When will the people and nations make peace? Riding till I get what they say I can’t findĪnswers to questions that trouble my mindĪddiction and pollution, will they ever cease? Made the big city by morning’s first light I drove through the desert in the cool of the night When judgment is left to the one who made us Trust in the one whose word moves mountains Is fed by the hand of the one who loves us Heading for home in the kingdom we’re building Love without limits, forgiveness aboundingĪnswer his call with your feet on his pathway Up on the mount you can hear him announcing Hear now the words of his kind invitation Leave behind selfishness, fear, isolation Walking his pathway toward joy and compassion Thompson, 1880 New lyrics: Jim Burklo, 2019 Join in the spirit of giving and sharing his light. Offer him room in your heart and soul tonight Honor him now as you welcome the stranger We have no rooms but we’ve got a place to stayīack in our manger we’ll make you a bed in the hay. Welcome, dear travelers, wand’ring so far Maybe you’ll find one that still has some space.Īt the final destination, the innkeeper sings: Go down the highway and seek a cheaper place You are too poor for our high nightly rate We have no rooms and the hour is too late Mary must rest, for the baby is now on its way!Īt each of the four stops the innkeepers answer: Help us, dear innkeeper, find a place to stay Help us, dear innkeeper, we’re seeking shelter Here I offer my own words for the tune:Īt each stop (4 inns plus the final destination), everyone sings: A link to the tune of the song: Pidiendo Posada. Actors depicting Mary and Joseph wander from "inn" to "inn" asking for a room, with a singing candlelight procession following them through the town. "Las Posadas" is an old Mexican tradition enacting the effort by Mary and Joseph to find a place to stay on Christmas Eve. Join the cosmic chorus in praise of Love divine, Holy, holy, holy, raise your voice in singing, Love that endures should nothing else remain. Makes a place for every soul in God’s eternal reign In all our struggles, God will lead us throughĪnd give us strength to do what we must doĮarly in the morning our song shall rise to youĬhrist, Love’s revealer, sets our spirits free. Or when the prophet's thund'ring voice is heardįor tears and laughter that our church has stirred The face of Christ among us now will showįor all the people that our church holds dearįor those we serve in love, both far and nearįor times when silence is the truest word Tune: "For All the Saints" Sine Nomine 10.10.10.A words by Jim BurkloĪs we share stories, moments high and low
