More poems about Temples

        WHEN THE TEMPLE IS BUSY
When the temple is busy there is a feeling everywhere
Of wonder and excitement, like electricity in the air,
For all who enter in bring a ray of spiritual light,
So when many are together spirituality is very bright.

A feeling of expectancy comes from those who wait,
Will this be their day to enter through heaven’s gate?
All of the temple humming as work as quietly done,
From baptisms to sealing many a victory won.

When the temple is busy the heavens with joy proclaim,
‘Welcome home dear children, your reward you’ll gain,’
Angel voices are raised in anthems loud for all to hear,
‘The prisoners bonds are broken, many are free from fear.’

Come join the throng so heavens angels may sing everyday
As more souls are freed and sent rejoicing on their way,
Feel the warmth and love that fills all those who come
Into the temple so other peoples work can then be done.

I know they will come to thank you through all eternity,
Want to meet the one who from prison set them free,
We would help a man without hands, him to kindly feed,
How much more important is some ones spiritual need?
