I
lost myself in Buttermere one night
The lake so pure ,the waterfalls so bright
When I emerged,I felt my soul renew
I lost myself in love when I met you
We walked from Keswick in a heavy storm
The elemental gales, the tempest honed
Then the sun burst out like golden dew
Melting in the sky to different hues
After further gales washed human hearts
The still small voice had whispered,Love’s not bought
The rain a symbol, holy water grace
We need a symbol of the unseen Face
Happy to be drowned in Nature’s tears
Love lives with our panic and deep fear
1 Kings 19:11-13 King James Version (KJV)
11 And he said, Go forth, and stand upon the mount before the Lord. And, behold, the Lord passed by, and a great and strong wind rent the mountains, and brake in pieces the rocks before the Lord; but the Lord was not in the wind: and after the wind an earthquake; but the Lord was not in the earthquake:
12 And after the earthquake a fire; but the Lord was not in the fire: and after the fire a still small voice.
13 And it was so, when Elijah heard it, that he wrapped his face in his mantle, and went out, and stood in the entering in of the cave. And, behold, there came a voice unto him, and said, What doest thou here, Elijah?
How my heart sings
