Daily Meditation: Walk Unscathed

Daily Meditation: Walk Unscathed

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 from the 2003 movie, Cold Mountain, written and performed by Sting and Alison Krauss. "You Will Be My Ain True Love" offers strength as a reminder of our ability to endure, even in the most trying of times.

You Will Be My Ain True Love by Sting and Alison Krauss

You'll walk unscathed through musket fire
No ploughman's blade will cut thee down
No cutless wound will mark thy face

And you will be my ain true love
And you will be my ain true love

And as you walk through death's dark veil
The cannon's thunder can't prevail
And those who hunt thee down will fail

And you will be my ain true love
And you will be my ain true love

Asleep inside the cannon's mouth
The captain cries, "Here comes the rout"
They'll seek to find me north and south

I've gone to find my ain true love

The field is cut and bleeds to red
The cannon balls fly round my head
The infirmary man may count me dead

When I've gone to find my ain true love
I've gone to find my ain true love

Before You Go
