Not Going To Church

I don't ever go to church But, I still talk to God, I will not listen to a person from a perch I just read my Bible alone with a nod, I still worship my lord Jesus And his steps and teachings I try to follow, He is there for each and every one of us I found a home, just like the swallow. In a church I need not show my presence Or proof of God in which I believe, To anyone I will not look for offense Are we not all the children of Adam and Eve, I do not like gossip or finger pointing Nor the talk of a strangers inequities or sin, Shouldn't we all be anointing Aren't we all just weak women and men. I enjoy listening to a church's religious hymns But, I enjoy more working for our Lord, I practice it daily and not in whims And never do I hate or use a sword, When a collection plate is passed around Of course, I am never there, Somewhere else I and my soul are bound So, secretly I donate my money and a prayer. I give my tithes not to a church, but to the homeless And never do I wear a suit and a tie, No person do I need or want to impress And I will stay that way until the day that I die. Every day with me Jesus will walk So, I will always help the needy and the poor From the Lord's teachings I will never balk So, I never need to enter any church's front door. Randy L. McClave
