A BROKEBACK BLESSING
From the Light of Heath
From the Grace of Jake
From the Silence of Ang
We thank thee, Lord, for these blessings.
From the Soul of Ennis
From the Spirit of Jack
From the Vision of Annie
We thank thee, Lord, for these blessings.
In the Light of Heath, there is knowledge of Self.
Heed the Self and Transcend.
Be wise among thy senses.
To thee, be a friend.
We thank thee, Lord, for this wisdom.
In the Grace of Jake there is Joy.
The wind blows. Its movement unhalting.
In the face of hardship, embrace humility.
The wind shall pass over, defaulting.
We thank thee, Lord, for this grace.
The Silence of Ang is a sounding bell
To destroy, employ, enjoy.
In this our moment of presentation,
Let our hearts be endowed.
We thank thee, Lord, for this silence.
From the Strength of the Earth
From the Breath of the Wind
From the Spark of the Fire
We thank thee, Lord, for these blessings.
For the Light of Heath
For the Grace of Jake
For the Silence of Ang
We thank thee, thank thee, Lord
