Your Presence

Lord, I need your presence
More than I need air
I need you to infiltrate
Yourself in the terror of the world

Come to us in the midst of horror
Reassure us in the fragile times
Our world is falling apart
And we need you more than ever

Our world is a mess
With bombings on the London tube
To winds and seas raging,
And causing total destruction

People rush to blame you
For the destruction that is caused
When lives are torn apart
And the economy collapses

But what we need to do
Is come into your presence
Trust our lives with you
And give you our fears
