We sang the song "Draw the Circle Wide" at church a few weeks ago and it fits well with this blog. Some will say "there shouldn't be a circle at all" (and I generally agree) -- however, if you read the lyrics, you will see that essentially everyone ends up inside the circle...
Draw the circle wide, draw it wider still.
Let this be our song: no one stands alone.
Standing side by side, draw the circle, draw the circle wide...
God the still-point of the circle
Round you all creation turns
Nothing lost but held forever
in God's gracious arms
Refrain
Let our hearts touch far horizons
So encompass great and small
Let our loving know no borders
Faithful to God's call
Refrain
Let the dreams we dream be larger
Than we've ever dreamed before
Let the dream of Christ be in us
Open every door!
Refrain

If there is no circle, you might either belong... or everyone might just be little bits floating around in the vastness of space...
