As we come together (Vol 1 No 1) 

As we come together,

Some may come to pray;

Seeking for direction -

How to live each day.

As we come together,

Some to meet with friends;

Talking, lis’ning, sharing;

On these love depends.

As we come together,

Some to be surprised;

To confront new insights,

And be energized.

As we come together

Some may come to weep

Over ugly failures

And the guilt they reap.

As we come together

Some may come to pause;

Stressed and in depression;

Looking for the cause

As we come together

Some may come with grief;

Seeking for some comfort,

Seeking some relief.

As we come together

Some come for release

From the fear that conquers

All their inner peace.

As we come together

Some may come in fear;

Hoping for compassion

And a lis’ning ear.

As we come together

Some with gratefulness;

Thankful for compassion

Shown with gentleness.

As we come together

Some in happiness;

Seeking to be conscious

Of those in distress.

As we come together

Some may come alone;

May our warmth and friendship

Be quite clearly shown.

.As we seek together

At this time and place,

May we know God’s presence,

And God’s wondrous grace.
