God’s presence

There is […] one God and Father,
who is over all and in all and living through all
(Ephesians 4:5-6; NLT).

1. The Father waits within each mind,
For he is patient, good, and kind.

2. The Son of Man lives in each heart,
And pleads with God on our behalf.

3. His Spirit rests within each soul,
To help us when life takes its toll.

4. So, though we cannot understand,
God’s presence can be known firsthand,

5. For he remains within us all,
Though he is great, and we are small.
