Feeling His Presence – v3

Kneeling at the rail
the altar’s bounty, the spring harvest
overflowing, the bright flowers of spring
a stone, a rock, to remember,
the crown of thorns still on His cross

Words of praise, of joy,
an invocation, calling Christ,
the Spirit, into our midst
a living presence

Feeling the presence of Christ
here in the sanctuary
walking into our worship
sitting with me, in my pew
raising His voice in those of the pastors

Calling us from winter’s slumber
Easter people, smiling
Joy in the morning
He is risen, and with us today!
