His Gift

He sent the raindrops He sent the sun He sent the wonder To our hearts and souls He sent the music He sent the joy He sent the miracles To whisper to our minds It was only in the gifts Sent by His loving hand That we discovered blessings Rained on our hopes and dreams Breathing love across our spirits Freeing us from all grief, angst or worry Reminding us that we’re loved Beyond our own realization More than we can grasp With a love that has no end A love that is eternal And gives the gift Of forever He sent the silent thoughts To reveal to us the joy in our hearts Where He gave us a brilliant warmth To keep us filled with serenity and faith The grace to listen to His voice always In Him, I found the answers To the many prayers I prayed Longing for solutions and resolutions To the problems I faced, the aches I met The feelings and failures, the wisdoms and weather From a changing idea, a changing of seasons The beauty within – like the beauty of a impression That grips the spirit with the hope, the faith To listen to the amazing grace that fills up hearts With gentleness and peace, the splendor of kindness He heard my prayers, listened to my heart Reassured me that I was loved Beyond what I might have heard of With a love that creates, elevates and elates Giving the gift of compassion to a spirit that waits … for the greatest gifts granted – His gift of love!
