Title: BEAUTY

When I stand still and see the mountains
Rivers, trees, waterfalls and fountains
I see the creation of God’s hands
Acknowledge all that is our lands
Awesome pyramids, a mystery to unfold
Wonders of the world still untold
All who lives in the water
Beauteous creatures work of the potter

You should stand beneath a tree
Think on how it came to be
Reaching for the sky
To it’s creator on high
All kinds of leaves dressed in green
Changing colours adorned in splendid scene
It’s home to the animals who make their nest
Gathering food and storing the rest

Look upon the people of the earth
Diverse in colour who have given birth
To this our great nation
One of God’s fair creation
Look upon a beautiful one
See their inner parts how it runs
But then the homely is despised
For lack of beauty and never prized

Stand at the edge of a sunny shore
Look at the calm, beauteous sea forevermore
On grey and gloomy days beauty is found
In the midst where stormy, turbulent winds abound
The wind roars with a terrible voice across the sea
Tossing waves violently breaking up to be free
Storm clouds gather racing over the sea
Tumbling together to meet their destiny

Consider the ants and their ways
Blessed with wisdom to fulfill her days
They reap that which they have sown
Building a city where beauty is known
Study the bees drawn to the flowers
They gather to make honey with their powers
To feed their queen
And a world unseen

So much beauty in God’s creation
His handiwork spread throughout the nation
We are made in the image of our creator
Admire the beauty of our originator
How can man compare
To our creator who is all aware
How can you look upon beauty
And not see all created amazingly
