All days the same
Quakers have this noble notion
God created all days the same
Important then to worship him
On a Monday as on Sunday.
Birthdays too should matter little
No need to make a Christmas fuss
Days and months are known by numbers
Meeting houses have no steeple.
Men and women created equal
No paid preachers no clerics either
The voice of each one weighs the same
Save the earth to bless his name.
No loud choirs with rousing hymns
No long sermons predicting hell
Just a circle sitting silently
Waiting on the Spirit’s song
Which is wordless because in truth
Words bring more trouble than they’re worth
No need to promise, just accomplish
Actions always speak the loudest.
