I Surrender

I open my heart
before You—
like a flower
in the morning sun.

In tears of joy,
in tears of joy,
in tears of joy

—I surrender.



Thank You, Lord

It happened in India, under a mosquito net,
while meditating with a Christian nun.

We were facing each other… eyes closed… focusing on the breath…
—when, without warning, the nun’s head turned
toward the corner of the room, and her eyes rolled back.
I froze—
and a voice within me whispered:
“Do not interfere.”

When she returned, her eyes shimmered with tears of awe —
and I knew she had merged with the Holy Presence.

After she left the room, a song arose within me —
like a sacred echo of Grace that had passed through her


Your smile in me
Touched my heart with Joy
Beyond my dream

Thank you
Thank you
Thank you, Lord

I can hear your voice
When the silence grows
Within my soul

Thank you
Thank you
Thank you, Lord
