Where we are … God is
© Gertrude Blau Byram
We do not need cathedral’s spire
Or stone-carved temple grand,
To worship our dear God above-
We can pray just where we stand.
We do not need the songs of choirs,
though beautiful they are,
We can sing our own sweet praises
as we travel near and far.
We can stand in fields of new grain,
on the desert, shore or glen,
Make our vow of sweet surrender
and begin our lives again.
With renewed life, love and spirit,
casting off our worldly care,
we can face each awesome challenge
Knowing God is always there.
