Everywhere


                        I look to the heaven's which declare,

                          My God, my King, is everywhere.

                             His signature is in the skies, 

                         Beyond the scope of human eyes.

                       The stars, and moon, the galaxies

                          It's in the creatures of the seas.

                           I look and see amazing grace,

                              On every little child's face.

                              Looking at the mountains    

                              Each deep valley and hill

                             His signature, I see it still.

                          The busy ants no eye will see,

                          All creatures, such complexity!

                      I look to the broken hearts burned out,

                        I pray to Father, Who without doubt,

                       See's each one, and hears my prayer,

                       That Father God will meet them there.

                     Please, lift the broken, and dry the tears,

                           Renew the olden, bent with years.

                            I long to hear His glorious shout

                           That opens graves and calls us out!

                        All sorrows past, and gone despair, 

                              And Love, through Christ 

                                   Seen everywhere.

These are the things gained with age! To know the meaning of suffering and brokenheartedness. To know where to turn, who hold the answers! God bless you, BJ!
