Worshiping in Country Churches <br />Are different it seems to me <br />Folks so friendly toward one another <br />In a small and warm community <br /> <br />And, I don’t know, seems like God <br />Has an easier time listening <br />Folks slow down just a bit <br />Take a little time for reminiscing <br /> <br />They aren’t so all-fired busy <br />Their schedules aren’t as cluttered <br />And when they come together <br />Their prayers are softly muttered <br /> <br />Yes, God is everywhere <br />And you don’t need church to pray <br />But a small Country Church <br />Seems like such a gentle way <br /> <br />And don’t you enjoy their appearance? <br />And their rustic sense of style? <br />I love to stop and talk to God <br />In a Country Church for a little while <br /> <br />The stillness of a country moment <br />A sermon in the morning hush <br />Folks gather together on Sunday <br />There doesn’t seem to be such a rush <br /> <br />So if you’re from a big city <br />Or just doing a religious search <br />Drive out into the country <br />And discover a Country Church!<br /><br />Marilyn Lott<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/country-churches/
