Come the day, come the sun, come the moment of shining, let me see all the world in this light, in the goodness of God, in the earth and its music with the wings that give wonder its flight. Come the day, come my work, that however I find it, I am blessed by what spirit achieves; let me center my thought, let me serve where it's needful, from the spring to the fall of the leaves. Come the fears and the tears come the grief and regretting when the web of my weaving is torn; come the joys and the hopes when a new life is growing like the dream of a child to be born. Come the night, come the stars, come the time for goodbye-ing in the circle of faith and of friend, giving thanks, knowing love in the deepest of measure, let me travel in peace to my end. (Optional repeat of first verse)
