The Heavens Declare

The heavens declare God’s glory As the body without the spirit is dead So too the moon is dead It has no light of its own Without the light of the sun She cannot shine and give light In the darkness So too as the sun rises In newness each day So too shall the moon Rise in newness of light Reflecting the Glory Of The SUN/SON Like a whirling dancer The heavens swirl And sway dressed In her skirt of stars To the lyrical rhythm The musical beat Of The word of life © Brenda V Northeast 21/ 01/ 2012
