I Am Blest Night Sky
Despite my lack of radiance…
I, night sky, beckon your languishing heart
to plead for miracles against doubt
believing that beyond the firmament*
God spreads to You His love so bountiful.
Though you see me midst environmental disturbance…
I, night sky, with enveloped clouds
invite your longing soul to seek for divine help
cognizant that the Almighty Father
can give blissful peace and blessed comfort.
Devoid of moonlight
I, night sky, offer to your weary mind
hope as you look up in prayer fervency
lifting your burdens to the Saviour
Who opens His throne of grace.
Midst forecast of storms
I, night sky, challenge your steadfast faith
to stay unwavering, conquering fears by His might
while you trust the omnipotent Creator
supreme Controller above all.
With my glowing bliss of triumphant serenity
I, night sky, welcome your spirit
to bask in my magnificence --- sublime and glorious
reminding that the LORD Who rules night and day
gives good night rest to refresh you for tomorrow’s venture.
*Genesis 1:14 And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years.
