You Are Here – v3

We light Your candle,
bring Your light, Spirit
into our dark sanctuary
fill our hearts;
We do this not to draw You in
for You are here, already here, Lord,
by our gathering alone, You are here, oh God.

We light the candles, illuminating
reminding us, forgetful as we are,
of Your continuing presence
lighting all of our days;
Alive with us in community
and within us, in the secret places.
the secret places of our hearts.
