Third Monday of Advent


“He put a new song in my mouth,
   a song of praise to our God. “ Psalm 40:3a

when we call an
old friend out of the blue,
saying, ‘I just wanted
to hear our voice;’
when we say ‘thank you’
to the curmudgeonly crossing guard
and leave her with a smile;
when we tell our soulmates
we love them (and really
mean the words), we
sing your new songs,
Lyricist of creation.
