Life's Essentials
What value do I place on love
or the olive branch of a dove
What treasured blessings come thereof
from God above from God above
What esteem do I give to rain
the source of life it does sustain
nourishing fields of amber grain
in God's domain in God's domain
How cherished is the risen sun
warming Earth when day has begun
A light like God's begotten Son
The holy One The holy One
How treasured is a breath of air
The thought of death I cannot bear
I plead with impassioned prayer
And God is there And God is there
Priceless is life for I've been blessed
by God's spiritual behest
With belief in His Word expressed
My faith professed My faith professed
In life these truths are essential
and profoundly existential
for God has been influential
