As if in the immediate presence of God

His words resonating
how I wish it were our prayer
ever acting as if God is with us
sitting in that chair
that space near, by us
watching every step
how would we act differently
what words would we choose, resist
if every moment, ever second
acting as if God were here
as if in the immediate presence of God
the one awesome, fearful
in the presence of almighty God
