My Church

The pillars of my cathedral
Are living redwood frees
I substitute for stain-ed glass
The earth and sky and sea

The sermon of the hummingbird
And lesson of the seal
Teach my heart the living truth
In scripture that is real

My church is in the great outdoors
And deep within my heart
I need no sermon from a book
When I can hear a lark
