A Sight God Created

A single sunflower grew Where none should have grown Nurtured by God with sunshine and rain No soil was used but it continued to grow It's fragile stalk grew about one foot tall A yellow sunflower smiled down at me High in the crook of an old elm tree A sight God created for me to see A lesson I've learned from that lovely flower It didn't question about how it grew Or what would happened to it tomorrow But instead it put it's trust In God's awesome wondrous powers For even the sunflower is precious to Him A sunflower growing where none should be Is a testimony to His greatness How I wish I was like that wonderful flower Glorifying God in all that I do I can learn from you, my flowering friend By growing strong and steadfast In the direction of his Light Letting God be the Gardner of my soul With all my heart I'll worship Him Proclaiming his glory through the land.
