Shout Joy: Grace in the Wilderness: Prayers and Poetry

                                   Shout Joy

                                    shall shout

                                    shall be radiant

                                    will we accept gift

                                    with humility and thanksgiving

                                    or allow fears and loss to

                                    overtake hope

                                    daily encouragement

                                    new life breathes

                                    nurtured by being

                                    alive

                                    again every morning.
