Spinning

If ever earth and sky should spin away

and love and truth lie crumbled at your feet,

when all around and in you cries defeat

and hope and faith seem merely words to say–

Say nothing; hear Him whisper to your soul:

My peace lies in acceptance, not control.

And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding,

Shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.

Philippians 4:7
