Which is the Holy Ground – v2

Which is the holy ground,
when is the ground holy
a place to take off my sandals,
to walk barefoot on holy ground.

We miss so much, limiting ourselves
if we do not see the holy in our midst
everyday grace, ordinary, real,
right before our eyes.

All the ground is holy
feel the rich earth,
the hard ground, the rock
beneath our bare feet.

Walk, run, play, kneel
on the holy ground
all around us
all of this created by God
