Chairs in rows
A simple school gym
A house of praise
Empty seats slowly fill
As the people trickle in
Music playing
Singers singing
Dancers dancing
Freely
Hands raised
Lights lowered
Body, mind, and heart align
In worship
Truth spoken
Witness given
Goosebumps on my arm and neck
Listen.
Hear.
Follow.
“How lovely is Your dwelling place
O Lord Almighty
My soul longs and even faints for You”
“For here my heart is satisfied
Within Your presence
I sing beneath the shadow of Your wings”
“One thing I ask and I would seek
to see Your beauty”
“My heart and flesh cry out
for You, the living God
Your spirit’s water to my soul”
“I’ve tasted and I’ve seen…”
