Celebrating With Friends

Celebrating with friends, day after day!
And even if I was alone to pray…
Still the nights shine ever brighter, as we
offer up our high praise in unity.
Fresh winds hail from the north, south, east and west.
The Spirit with tongues of fire - we’re blest.
Our happy dance, not a trance, but holy.
We bow down - God gives grace to the lowly.
A light shines in the darkness of gray days.
Going forth our steps, Lord, protect our ways.
The revival we seek of lasting hope.
Body and blood of Christ - salvation’s rope.
Celebrating with friends, day after day -
O Lord, pull back the tide, let no soul stray.

Magnificent! Whatever your religious group, for you to compose such marvelous living praise, you and they are far wiser than 100,000 at any Emmy Awards. Though I understand, viewership was almost naught. My humble opinion, your pen serves Christ brilliantly. Blessings my friend.

Praying as a group is always a pleasure. He himself has assured 'Where two or three are gathered together in my name, … behold, there will I be in the midst of them'— So praying together is a beautiful experience. I can sense your joy, dear Kim. May God bless you !
