Tonight as we stood in worship
it was like electricity filled the air,
with the presence of God enveloping
and washing away all care.
I felt my spirit soar inside
as I sang Him songs of praise,
my heart so overflowing
because of His love and amazing grace.
It was as though His arms were around me
in a Heavenly Father hug,
our hearts being knit together
as He enveloped me in His love
I hate, I despise your feasts, and I take no delight in your solemn assemblies. Even though you offer me your burnt offerings and grain offerings, I will not accept them; and the peace offerings of your fattened animals, I will not look upon them. Take away from me the noise of your songs; to the melody of your harps I will not listen. But let justice roll down like waters, and righteousness like an ever-flowing stream. Amos 5:21-24
