He Won'T Fit Inside a Church

He won’t fit inside a church He won’t fit inside a thought He won’t fit inside a hope Yet He fits inside a heart He is light and He is love He lavishes us, each one, with good He restores us when we doubt He reminds us we can always surmount The enemies that seems to cloud Our joy, our hope, our inspiration The feelings that create in us A grace that rains down His love He won’t fit inside a dream He won’t fit inside a house He won’t fit inside a song Yet He will fit inside the soul He is the wonder that leads us on The feeling of promise that teaches our hearts The beauty and joy of knowing His love Abides within us, where He will fulfill us He is the kindness and the strength That brings us beyond all the sorrow and grief He destroys the darkest dread, despair Reassures our hearts that we always have a prayer He won’t fit inside a star He won’t fit inside a cathedral He won’t fit inside a religion Yet, He will fit inside the spirit He is wise and He is trustworthy His light reflects the peace that is His Sign – His crest – His insignia that suggests He knows our hearts, our souls, our spirits He tears down all the walls we’ve built With our worries, our fears and our suspicions He shows us how to love, unconditionally, completely With a love that He inspires, rousing inside The one who knows He is the answer to each prayer The reason for our desires, our hopes, our dreams The reason for our joy, our kindness, our faith The reason for a love that lives throughout eternity He won’t fit inside a mind But He will fit inside a life! 1 Kings 8:27 (KJV) – But will God indeed dwell on the earth? Behold, the heaven and heaven of heavens cannot contain thee; how much less this house that I have builded?
