What keeps you moving?
February 8, 1982
What keeps you moving? Call it not energy but a kind of grace
proceeding from the steady beat of that great Heart that yearns for you and knows
the rhythm you insistently do keep,
And so draws you with infallible precision (with all the others you must sometime surely know!)
through the many stony places where you must keep moving but cannot miss a step
into a new and unheard of rejoicing in what is even now being accomplished
And bestowing, always the clarity that keeps you out of range the simple courage to go on.
