Everywhere

From the mountains to the valleys
From the skies so far above to the depths of the seas
From the poorest in the world to the rich in lofty seats
From the small town to the big city and every street
You are there, Lord you are everywhere

No matter where we are or what we do we cannot escape from you
Because You are there, Lord you are everywhere

The single mother with a baby and the one down on their knees
The outcast the unloved those who suffer from disease
The helpless and the broken burdened and betrayed
The forgotten or neglected happy just to greet another day
You are there, Lord the one who cares

No matter where we are or what we do we cannot run from you
Because You are there, Lord you are everywhere

For the widow and the orphan crying out for peace
For those who stand up asking violence to cease
For those who work to help and those who work to save
For the many whom, for their belief, their very lives they gave
You are there, Lord the one who loves

No matter where we are or what we do we cannot go from you
Because You are there, Lord you are everywhere

From our innermost thoughts to the deepest parts of us
When we love you and when we fuss
From what we are now to what someday we will be
When we tie ourselves with our choices and when we are set free
You are there, Lord the one who knows

No matter where we are or what we do we cannot hide from you
Because You are there, Lord you are everywhere


You are here in our midst as we gather as one
You are here with us when the hour has come

You are here when we come to you in prayer
Even when we do not feel you, still you are here

You are here at all times whether we want you or not
You never leave us even when we leave you and that means a lot

You are with us every minute and every hour
You are with us by our side when we are feeling satan’s power

You are with us always until the end of time and there forever after
You are with us in our tears, our sufferings, our joys, and our laughter


No matter where we are or what we do we cannot be away from you
Because You are there, Lord you are everywhere

We're all the same no matter what we are
We are close together and not very far
Each of us is unique, none of us is exactly alike
They are people just like us, so why do we strike
Doesn't matter what your color eyes or hair,
Race or religion we should all play fair
You are you and I am me
Different but great friends you see
Why do we hate others in the world
We are all one string attached just tightly curled
Can we get along together one day
Peace to peace and heart to heart that's all you gotta say
Its really very simple it ain't that very hard
It could be just as simple as a hopeful little card
Why can't we seem to get along? Why do we have to fight?
Why can't we be happy every day and night?
It is just that little question that I ask
How hard can it be to do a tiny little task?
We're all the same when we go to die,
We're all the same in that we must ask why
Hating someone else isn't far from hating a friend
Would you hate that person with you to the end?
How is it that it is so hard to love yet so easy to hate
Its no problem breaking up but hard to find a date
So you see we're really all the same at the end of time
Which reminds me its the end of this rhyme
