Disturb us, Lord, to dare more boldly.
To venture on wider seas, where storms will show your mastery;
where losing sight of land, we shall find the stars.
We ask that you push into the future -
In strength, courage, hope, and love.
Because we have dreamed too little,
When we arrived safely
because we sailed too close to the shore.
- Sir Francis Drake (1540-1596)
