Daily Meditation: Paradise

We all need help maintaining our personal spiritual practice. We hope that these daily meditations, prayers and mindful awareness exercises can be part of bringing spirituality alive in your life.

Today's meditation features a song composed by Michael McGlynn of the world-renowned Irish choral ensemble, Anúna. The song reminds us that amidst the splendor of nature we may hear a "whisper of paradise."

Whispers of Paradise by Anúna

Gentle breeze, scattered embers on moonlit water
Waking the cool breath of night
Silent stars shining down from eternal darkness
Frozen reflections of light

And for one moment in time
I hear a whisper of paradise
And for one moment in time
I hear a whisper of paradise

Golden sun rising out of a pale blue morning
Carries the summer along
Distant cries, seagulls dance in unending patterns
Echoes rejoice with their song

And for one moment in time
I hear a whisper of paradise
And for one moment in time
I hear a whisper of paradise
