Chris Rice My Cathedral Lyrics

My Cathedral Lyrics

sweetest days of childhood

playing in the deep woods

stamping through the creek

and feeling oh so much alive



camping in the forest

enjoying the cookie chorus

hum my songs of gratitude

around the crackling fire



right here in the stillness

i found my house of worship

with column trees and canopy of stars

here in my cathedral



it was beneath the blue skies

i ran down to be baptized

i felt the river wash me clean

and dried beneath the sun



to this day believing

i'm wide awake and dreaming

scan the ancient sky

and understand where i belong



cause i'm here in the stillness

i found my house of worship

with column trees and canopy of stars

here in my cathedral



this is where i fin my soul

out where holy men of old

first knelt in soil 

and thanked you for the rain



felt the songs that filled the air

harold angels sang a prayer

harp beneath your darling constellations



take me off in wander

robinsongs in thunder

surrounding me with stained glass leaves

that change with every pray'r



i'm right here in my stillness

and find my house of worship

with column trees and canopy of stars

here in my cathedral.
