The Sun, with halo at horizon's edge
where burnished gold meets ridge of orange glow,
as though almighty God was standing there
bestowing blessings on His field of green.
The field of green with cattails standing tall
like arms raised high to praise God's glowing love,
embrace the wonder of this summer sight
of Sun that brings another brand new day.
The splendor of the sunrise is His song
that sings the beauty of its light and warmth;
this power of the life it brings to earth,
can only be the mastery of God.
Let's raise our arms like cattails in a field,
and praise that halo at horizon's edge,
as though Almighty God was standing there,
in thankfulness for all His gifts of Earth.
