God Is Near

The birds sing that God is near Flowers shine for his love so dear The brook whispers as it glides past That God's creation will forever last Sun sets on this majestic plain My heart is forever changed For this heaven that I see Reminds me God is waiting for me Listen to that soulful whip poor will Take it in and let your heart be still Let God take you by the hand And lead you to his promised land

Focus on God -- lovely penned. Focus on the end of life -- please postpone it again! Nice to see you posting a poem, my friend. Light and Life, Gershon
