There were pictures everywhere And my teacher said that this was His house, So I knew He must be there And even though I never saw His face I know He walked the halls, And I knew that He could hear When I sang that I could be His sunbeam That I could love my neighbor That I could fold my arms and bow my head And I knew He was just around the corner In the light behind the stained gla** I wasn't quite sure where, But He was always there When my freckles went away And all the dresses and the lace-trimmed socks Began to get too small I saw churches everywhere, I saw so many children go inside And I wondered if He knew my name at all But I sang that I would be my brother's keeper And I felt the tempest raging But I kept singing "Peace, peace, be still" And I hoped that He was still around the corner In the light behind the stained gla** I searched everywhere And He was always there And I stand all amazed Confused at he grace He gives to me With all the ways I wander A pilgrim and a stranger But in the distance I can always see The light that kindly leads I am older now But every day I try to be a little more Like the child I used to be And I think the times I start to feel that way the most Are the moments that I pray And when I raise my voice to sing To praise the Lord Almighty The King of Creation Somehow I know that He can hear By the way my spirit trembles He's just around the corner In the light behind the stained gla** It doesn't matter where He is always there
