Closer To God

I can feel God within the trees
In the wind and the ripple of streams
 
I can feel God in the dirt at my palm
I feel him in nature; keeping me calm
 
The voice of the birds; a hymnal to me
Just like the aggressive buzzing of a bee
 
I feel closest to the almighty with my knees bowing down
Not in a church house, and away from the crowed
