God is Presence. Make that claim and all
else falls into place. No height, depth
or breadth is beyond, beneath or outside
of the Presence of God.

1. The Presence of God is in this place.
In His presence we love and are loved....... .
(REFR.: Sing twice after first stanza).
The Presence of God in me blesses.......
the Presence of God in you....... ,
The Presence of God in you blesses.......
the presence of God in me....... .

2. The Presence of God is in this place.

3. The Presence of God is in this place.
In his presence we celebrate life....... .
(REFR.: Sing twice after thrid stanza).
The Presence of God in me blesses........
the Presence of God in you....... ,

(Sing after final refrain)
In God's presence we are blessed and
we bless Him and each other.
Real presence is....... real love.

(Suggestion: While singing this song shake the hand of or hug another person. Then move on and do the same thing with a different person and with as many persons as you like, but do not rush from one person to another person. Let your tactile contacts be done gracefully and lovingly.)
