I feel Your real presence dear Lord

As the moist haze of early morning slowly recedes

Revealing the dimly lit beginning to a brand new day

I stand in awe of your hand at work in creation

In amazement at the daily renewal of the cycle of life

I feel Your real presence dear Lord

As I gaze at Your handwork of painted morning hues

Of golden browns and grayest blues ever changing

Inspiring my spirit to rise above just living this day

To a place where I celebrate your boundless love

I feel Your real presence dear Lord

As a smile, a warm hello, and a touch is shared

And I see genuine caring in the eyes of another

Spreading the love You gave us to share

Bringing it to each other as You have shown

I feel Your real presence dear Lord

When I pause during the frenetic day to listen

When someone says: How are you or I’ll pray for you

Their care is genuine, it is Your gift and Your will

To love one another as You have shown
