St. Teresa

Today we celebrate the feast day of St. Teresa of Avila. One of her well known prayers is called St. Teresa's Bookmark. Enjoy it in both text and sung forms. The sung version is called Nada te turbe, a Taizé chant.



Let nothing disturb thee,
Nothing affright thee
All things are passing;
God never changeth;
Patient endurance
Attaineth to all things;
Who God possesseth
In nothing is wanting;
Alone God sufficeth.

H. W. Longfellow (translator).
