The Astronaut

THE ASTRONAUT As certain as I see the world below some things I'd overlooked, within my haste come to my mind, and in it now, I know we can't allow what time remains to waste. What God's become, because we've let it be, would change if only you'd see what I do, spread out below, right here in front of me a fragile sight--most delicate a view. To see the whole thing, as it is complete, the total world, big pictures only show, is recognizing what's beneath our feet was made by One who knows more than we know. My question's not to ponder as to how God made the world--but how to save it now.
