Leddy Hammock “Used to be when things got crazy, I’d get to feeling low. But, I found out I can’t let that phase me …. Sometimes we all feel disconnected…. It’s kind of strange, but it’s true: when everything changes, I can change anything. Turning the pages, everything’s new. If life’s little stages are teaching me anything,…

Leddy Hammock While I go walkin’, you know I’ll be smiling. The sun’ll be shining,’cause all day long I’m gonna sing my song. I’ve got my problems, my problems, but not today. I’ve got no problems today.”  

Leddy Hammock We take to heart these mighty words of The Reverend Doctor Martin Luther King, Jr., spoken in 1963, in our pledge for justice and compassion in every facet of our human interaction and in our spiritual expression: “As we walk, we must make the pledge that we shall always march…

Leddy Hammock Inspired by lyrics by Daniel Nahmod to “Everything New” — “Bring it on — everything new, everything different, everything true. I am ready for my next thing to do. Oh, I know it’s gonna be everything new. I’m through crying, I’m through waiting. I’m, through hoping against all hope. I’m through longing for…

Leddy Hammock “I know who you really are – I see it in your eyes. Oh, you are a shining star – I know who you really are! Oh, I know who you’re here to be – I see it in your eyes:  A light for the world to see – I know who you’re here to be…. Oh, I know who you really are – I see it in your eyes.  Oh, you are a shining star – I…

Leddy Hammock “I’m letting go of holding on. God is my shepherd, I shall not want. I’m letting go of holding on. Seeking first the kingdom of God. I let go of the feelings that feed on lack and greed. I let go of the reasons keeping me in need. I let go of the fear that there’s never enough. And I stop holding on, to what is not love. We breathe…

Leddy Hammock “Long ago, a child was born . . . who brought the gift of hope to you and me. Even if you don’t believe, there’s still a gift if you receive it from the heart of the Child of peace. When a child is born, they bring the gift of peace, an offering from the universe for all to see. In my heart, there is a space, pure and sacred, warm and safe,…

Leddy Hammock “In Bethlehem a manger waits, long ago and so today, Where hatred-weary people pray Love will come and lay there. And so do countless stables stand in hearts as harsh as desert lands, Rough shelters in the wind and sand, so Love will come and stay there –. Love that opens fists of hate, heaps of gold on beggars’ plates, Love that shows a kindly…

LEDDY HAMMOCK Search the sky for that star—star of light, star of love, bright enough to guide believers from afar. Let there be peace around our troubled world, peace within ourselves. We’ve traveled such a long way. Let us not forget what for. And when we gaze upon that star of light, star of love, we hope for the only gift: peace around our trouble world, peace…

Leddy Hammock “My Source of life is strength and wisdom. We thank You for helping us to endure and live through everything we’ve lived through. You brought us here, to this present moment. You’ve given us strength to find our way. Here, in this present moment, You’ve given us courage for today. We have courage for today. We live the good life, Oh,…
