Painful Lesson
Small Tendril Rises
Soft Glow Follows
With Raging Fire After
Bare Stubs
Blackened Timbers
Nothing Left To Salvage
Our Church Is Gone
Some Would Say
Never To Return
Parish Gathers
In Shock And Sorrow
The Church Is In Our Hearts
We Who Gather
Kneel And Pray
And With Faith Rebuild
The Sanctuary
We Are The Church
Walking In Christ's Company
