Hymn of the Heart
Since hibiscus is Rose of Sharon...
Hear these hibiscus hymns
reverberating the Saviour
as the Rose of Sharon*
and the Lily of the valleys
with good news of grace
bringing peace and hope
With this psalm of compassion
God heals woes and sorrows
for bright tomorrows, vibrantly awesome
vanquishing pain, frustration, angst
toward triumphant caring.
Amidst song of praise
exalting life-Source
with music of gratitude
I thank His lovingkindness
ceaselessly prevailing, reigning over grief
comforting every distressed soul.
Let hibiscus hymns linger
to echo cheerful wondrous hope
spreading bliss to all
with joy's delight.
*Song of Solomon 2:1 KJV "I am the rose of Sharon, and the lily of the valleys."
