When God Seems So Near

When I pause in the hush of his holy presence

When I'm so still I can hear each whispered word

When I pause to pray I enter His cathedral

These are the times when God seems so near.


There are times when I cannot feel His presence,

When the clouds of doubt obscure the Master's smile

But when I'm still enough to hear his gentle whisper

Then I know my Lord has been there all the while


When I pause in the hush of his holy presence

When I'm so still I can hear each whispered word

When I pause to pray I enter His cathedral

These are the times when God seems so near.


When I pause in the hush of his holy presence

When I'm so still I can hear each whispered word

When I pause to pray I enter His cathedral

These are the times when God seems so near.

These are the times when God seems so near.
