Beautiful Shivers

I was sitting in a church filled with light and beauty 
listening to an organist as he gently fused my soul 
Even the flowers on the alter seemed to be entranced
in this ethereal place where hardened hearts erase ; 
And as I offered prayers to the Savior Lord of hosts
I was saturated with karma and unnamable mystique 
Faith became a foundling, much braver then my fears 
as I touched His loneliness, everything disappeared 
Pondering on the crucifix another door was opened 
and it was the HOLY SPIRIT who finally  dried my eyes 
Soon the only thing I saw was a broken Jesus friend .
as I sat on a wooden pew the organist just played
until the sun fell and the stained glass turned to jade .
