God's Gifts

In the middle of the Universe I stand, In the wonder of a world prepared for me. God provided all I need With some cautions I should heed, As well as ears to hear and eyes to see. He filled it with variety of song From lovely birds, returning every year, And with grasses, flowers and trees And a mild and warming breeze That tells me spring is ready to appear. He sends no bills to pay at end of day And no millionaire could buy what He gives free. It is really only fair That He asks me to take care, That nothing goes extinct because of me We don't know if in this universe immense There is another world as grand as ours. Where even the fertile sod Is a gracious gift from God Along with all the sunshine and rain showers. Everything this world needs, our God has given And the only realm more perfect is God's Heaven.
