The hardest battles are inward, and they are won by leaning, not by force.
The Arc
The rahau says those who love the One have overcome the whole inner army of trouble, leaning on Your support and resting in Your shelter. The first verse: one look toward the One and the long weight of many mistakes lifts, light and joy fill the heart, settling into a natural, easy stillness. The close: who could say there is anything the boundless One cannot do — treasure of mercy, savored as love and beauty, the Name earned as true wealth.
