In sacred places,

Places of power,

Temples were built

On mountains, where once there had been

A communion with God

Once, a song was heard that was glorious and haunting

Once, a voice had called out from a high place

Once, the people came and glimpsed God

In the beautiful things, and in nature

There, the people joined together

With the spirit and

Built the beautiful houses for the One

Who needs no home
