My Cathedral Lyrics - Run The Earth Watch The Sky - Chris Rice

Sweetest days of childhood, playing in the deep woods 

Stomping through the creek and feeling, oh, so much alive 

We're camping in the forest, we join the cricket chorus 

And hum our songs of gratitude around a crackling fire 

And out 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 

And to this day believing I'm wide awake or dreaming 

Scan the ancient sky and understand where I belong 

'Cause out here in the stillness, I find my house of worship 

With column trees and canopy of stars, here in my cathedral 

This is where I find my soul, out where holy men of old 

First knelt in soil and thanked you for the rain 

Wrote the songs that filled the air, herald angels sang their prayer 

Out beneath your darling constellations 

So let me off and wander, robin song and thunder 

Surrounding me with stained glass leaves that change with every breeze 

And out here in the stillness, I find my house of worship 

With column trees and canopy of stars, here in my cathedral
