QUOTATION:Silent waters rocking on the morning of our birth,
like an empty cradle waiting to be filled.
And from the heart of God the Spirit moved upon the earth,
like a mother breathing life into her child.
ATTRIBUTION:Gordon Light (20th century), hymn–writer. Published in Songs for a Gospel People (1987). “She flies on,” l. 5-8, Common Cup Co. (1985).
