I was feeling creative this afternoon, so I went out and did some filming, and set the footage to the song "Naked As We Came" by Iron & Wine. In South Carolina, we overreact when we encounter snow.
"Lord, let it snow,
Make it snow in your time.
In December or in March, any day is fine,
Make it snow from this southern sky."
Lord, let me pray
with the steadfast faith of a child,
who refuses to have his prayers disparaged
by scoffers.
Lord, let me pray to you,
asking for what overcivilised people
would never dare to do.
And Lord, when you answer,
when you surely answer my supplications,
let nothing in me obstruct the rejoicing!
Let me play in the snows of answered prayers!
And Lord, do not let my joy
remain a private affair,
but let me tell of prayers and answers.
Let the Monday schoolyard be the mission-field!
