Unetaneh Tokef

close up of person's hands on their chest outdoors in sunlight
 
Trusting in the journey
Let us speak of the awesomeness,
Always a work in becoming
 
Living in the Mystery of the Unknowable
As time leads
Do not waste time in worry
Nor be distracted
On Rosh Hashanah by what is written,
Or on Yom Kippur as to
What will be sealed
 
Rather awake to the moment
When the Shofar calls –
In hearing the stillness of
That narrow voice, may you
Hear it with your ears, feel it in your
Heart and see it with your eyes
The innate presence of Hashem
In yourself and others
 
With kindness, hope and strength
Trusting in your process
May your insights become clear
Lifting you back to Divine Wisdom
