about

Thomas Merton talks a lot about finding solitude and peace while remaining in the thick of things. Can I let things lie without ceasing? I am ever intrigued and challenged by the paradox of resting while striving.

A portion of these lyrics are from Alfred, Lord Tennyson's poem In Memoriam A. H. H. OBIIT MDCCCXXXIII: 124, with slight adjustments.

lyrics

Faith-thick agnostic, I don't know
Faith-sick and lost it
I don't want to blow smoke

Dust in your hair
Rust in your fear
Falling exhausted through a door

It's time to rest
Time to rest
Keep on moving
Time to rest
Open my eyes
Open my eyes

And what, I am beheld again
What is, no man understands
And out of darkness came the hands
That move through nature

It's time to rest
Time to rest
Keep on moving
Time to rest
I open my eyes
I open my eyes

It's time to rest
Time to rest
Keep on moving
Time to rest
I open my eyes
I open my eyes
