Ps84
10For a day in Your courts is better than a thousand outside.
I would rather stand at the threshold of the house of my God
Than dwell in the tents of wickedness.

And all that so many ever find
Is only the wall where a door ought to be.
They creep along the wall like blind men,
With outstretched, groping hands,
Feeling for a door,
knowing there must be a door,
Yet they never find it - - -
So I stay near the door.
from SO I STAY NEAR THE DOOR
