Disturb Us O, Lord

isang akda na naging malakas ang epekto sa akin.

"Disturb Us, O Lord

Disturb us, O Lord
when we are too well-pleased with ourselves;
when our dreams have come true because we
dreamed too little;
when we have arrived in safety because we sailed
too close to the shore.

Disturb us, O Lord
when with the abundance of things we possess
we have lost our thirst for the water of life;
when, having fallen in love with Time,
we have ceased to dream of Eternity;
and in our efforts to build the new earth
have allowed our vision for the New Heaven
to grow dim.

Stir us, O Lord, to dare more boldly, to venture
on wider seas, where storms shall show Thy
mastery, where losing sight of land we shall
find the stars.

In the Name of Him who, pushed back the horizons
of our hopes and invited the brave to follow Him.

Amen."
