Celebration of the church in the community in poetry.

[flicrat]

For a church service,we wanted to find a poem that celebrated the church in the community or even just describing the building as seen by the community. Please has anyone any ideas? I had thought Philip Larkin might have written one, but when I googled , it came up blank because of copyright, so I wonder if that would be a problem with other poems if we wanted to use them.

This church is such a blessed place, Where you can worship no matter creed or race. We come together young, old , healthy and lame, to pray beneath this heavenly frame.... Write your own flicrat. Take what you know and fashion it .

Thank you oldwoman. I needed some encouragement and will try to follow your advice.
