Senses

3 Replies 
When I taste a flavor I think of my Lord
Who gave us the apples and peaches and pears
He also gave me the wonderful sense
To taste all the wonders He made

When I smell a fragrance I praise the Lord
Who gave us the meadows and oceans and flowers
He also gave me the ability
To take in aromas He made

Glorious creator
Wonderful Lord
I give you praise
It’s you I adore
You not only gave me
Beauty so grand
But senses to take in
This wonderful land

When nature cries out I worship my God
Who gave us the bees the frogs and the dogs
He also allowed me to have open ears
To hear the creation He made

When I see a sunset I am overwhelmed
By the one who gave us beauty so grand
I adore Him for the sight of His world
And the universe He paints for me

All of the food that I eat
All of the noises I hear
All of the wonders I see
All of the fragrance so sweet
All from my Lord, all from my Lord

Glorious creator
Wonderful Lord
I give you praise
It’s you I adore
You not only gave me
Beauty so grand
But senses to take in
This wonderful land

Creation Testifies

In all the world around me
I see His loving hand
I know He’s watching over me
He surveys this great land

I love to hear the birds
As they sing their praises high
I love to see the trees
As they lift their branches high

I love to feel the wind
His spirit whisking by
I love to see the stars
So majestic in the sky

All to bring His praises
To lift His name up high
All to bring Him glory
His creation testifies

When I behold this symphony
Of praise to Christ our Lord
I just have to lift my voice
To the one that I adore

Praise His name, His mighty name
The glorious name of Jesus
Praise His name, His matchless name
Jesus Christ the Lord

Sing His praises loud and clear
Cause your voice to shout and cheer
Sing it out so all will hear
That Jesus Christ is Lord

Praise His name, His mighty name
The glorious name of Jesus
Praise His name, His matchless name
Jesus Christ the Lord

A Beautiful Sight

Leave a reply 
I look up at the stars tonight
All in their places and shining so bright
I say Lord what a beautiful sight
Your glory displayed in the skies tonight

Then the sun begins to cast its rays
Turning clouds crimson red from their pre-dawn grays
Golden beams stretch across my gaze
What a beautiful sight to start my day

As the sun crosses the sky His beauty grows
The trees wave their arms in praise below
The birds sing a song because they know
This beautiful sight is for all to behold

Then the dusk arrives and the sun begins to set
He paints the sky all across the west
His majesty is on display again
This beautiful sight brings day to end

Don't miss a single moment of His grace
No matter what may come He'll make a way
The beautiful sights He gives to us each day
Are a token of His love so give Him praise

Special To God

Leave a reply 
I can't imagine
A world without horses
Or dogs and cats
Or sharks and bass

I can't imagine
A world without oceans
or rivers and streams
Or ponds and lakes

I can't imagine
A sky without stars
Or sun and moon
Or clouds

All these things that God created
By His spoken word
For our pleasure

He provided for us before he even created us
Before He formed us from the dust of the earth
Before He breathed into us the breath of life
He formed us with His hands

All other things were spoken into existence
He still holds us in the palm of His hand
And He loves us above all His creation
We are special to God
You are special to God



The Master Painter

Leave a reply 
I sit and watch
As sunset approaches
Scattered clouds above the western horizon

A ribbon of gold touches the bottom clouds
He spreads upward
Around the dark clouds
Bright and shimmering
Outlining and silhouetting

Suddenly a blaze of brilliant gold
Rays peek through
To touch a higher cloud with gold

Sun sinks deeper
Red starts to color he lower clouds
As Gold starts to relinquish its power

Red, orange, pink, yellow
An incessant palate
Changing minute to minute
Reaching across the sky
Until it reaches above me
Behind me

Then slowly the colors fade
From west to east
Into gray
As the last rays
Leave the clouds

Oh. What a thrill
To watch the Master painter
At work

Nature’s Praise

2 Replies 
As I wake up in the morning
And the sun is breaking through
I sit in awesome wonder
At the good things that you do

You fill the air with sunshine
You bring the evening rain
You light the stars at night
And then you bring the sun again

You start the birds a chirping
In the early morning light
And as sunset rolls along
You give them sleep into the night

The animals all trust you
To provide their daily care
They go about their daily tasks
And know you’re always there

The trees uplift their branches
In praises unto you
They know their source of life
And they give praise where it’s due

All of His creation
Is a song of simple praise
I think I’ll try to be the same
When I proclaim His name

No more murmuring or whining
No more wishing there was more
No more wondering if He hears me
No more doubting His dear word
No more thinking it is my time
No more sulking in my woes
No more worries in my trials
No more angry at my foes

If nature can just praise Him
For the good things that He gives
Why should I be any different
 In the praise that I uplift

All Of Creation Sings

The trees wave their arms,
The birds sing their songs,
The stars show their light for His glory
Each sunset displays
His wonderful ways,
And the heavens cry out with his story
All of creation sings praise to the King of Kings.
He gives us everything good in our lives

I will lift up my hands to the Lord,
All of creation adores Him
I will sing with the birds,
And wave with the trees,
And shine His light brightly each day
For He is Lord, For He is Lord, For He is Lord

The flowers bloom bright
In the glorious sunlight,
The rains bring them life for His glory
The thunder proclaims,
The lightning exclaims,
And the heavens cry out with his story
All of creation sings praise to the King of Kings. 
He gives us everything good in our lives

The sun and the moon and the stars up above
Bring order to man just to show us His love
The earth is renewed by the heavens each day
As he shows us His marvelous ways

I will lift up my hands to the Lord,
All of creation adores Him
I will sing with the birds,
And wave with the trees,
And shine His light brightly each day
For He is Lord, For He is Lord, For He is Lord

All Creation

Sitting by an apple tree                 
Listening to the birds and bees
Realizing all creation sings His praise

Wind blows through the willow tree
Praises from the rustling leaves 
Creation calling out His mighty name

Jesus, Holy Jesus
Full of love and grace 
All creation lifts their voice
To sing His praise

Flowers blooming near to me
Sunrise shows His artistry
All creation testifies that He is Lord

Mountains loom in majesty
Clouds roll on a gentle breeze
Every but of nature lifts His word

Jesus,  Holy Jesus    
Full of peace and joy
All creation shows His beauty
In our eyes restored

Lift your voice oh people
Lift your voice and sing
Sing of joyous wonder
To creation ' s King

The Eye of the Sky

Leave a reply 
It dawns on creation
I watch 
As wispy clouds 
Dust the pre-dawn sky
With grey

Suddenly 
A splash of pink
Announces an expected event

The pink turns
Into soft yellow 
And gold begins to gild
The clouds

Brilliant gold 
Encasing several yellow shapes 
While bright red
And orange 
Spread to clouds 
Seemingly a distant 
Ways off

Now the gilding subsides 
Light starts to illuminate
The sky
And the eye 
Of the sky
Starts creeping high

Brighter 
And brighter
Welcoming
The new day
