Mostly God and Me

O God, is it mostly just You and me?
I know we often praise You in a crowd,
it helps to worship in community,
yet we meet silently more than out loud.

You steal upon me and You grab me most
when I'm alone and in the dark of night,
yet You're best in the Eucharistic Host,
still there we are alone in quiet light.

I know that You desire our public prayer,
and when I help someone I'm helping You,
yet we relate more when no one is there,
and when I pray alone it seems more true.

Created all alone, in death I'll be
with just You Three in Trinity with me.
