Gods Presence

 

Sacred space, holy ground,

just look around,

God’s Presence everywhere.

No one, no place

doth He e’er spare.

But ‘tis for each of us

to recognise His touch,

His Presence there.

 

God’s gift of self in others,

e’en though there may

no beauty be.

Yes, that is He.

 

He loves each one,

He calls by name.

That sacred space,

that holy ground is yours.

No shame

to stop and let it be,

just let it be,

oh, let it be.

And then for all eternity

you will be His.
