Of all the words that exist in the world

Let us choose kind ones

Let them offer hope and encouragement

Let them speak of peace and of gratitude

Let them form visions of light in the air that we breathe

Our words are our power

Of all the thoughts in the world

Let us choose fruitful ones,

Let them imagine, wonder and revere

Let them be selfless and forgiving

Let them be free of delusion

Our thoughts become our reality

Of all the actions in the world

Let us choose compassion

Let every being on the earth be relieved of burden

Let every cold heart be warmed

Let every emptiness be filled

With the fullness of love

Our time is now
