You're Not There

Why do I think of you
Far beyond my reach
Why can't I comprehend
The love you have for me
God of all the universe
Of earth and sky and sea
Your desire to own my heart
Is such a mystery

You're not there
Way out there
Wandering in your great unknown
You are here ever near
In my heart you've found a home
You are living
You are breathing
I can feel your presence in me

All the prayers to the saints
Every votive burned
But now I know from within
Your loving voice is heard

You sent your spirit
The promised one
To be with me forever

You're not there
Way out there
Wandering in your great unknown
You are here ever near
In my heart you've found a home
You are living
You are breathing
I can feel your presence in me

You are living
You are breathing
You are loving
I am needing
