Nature's Hands

Arise little ones
A new day is born
Watch with me
The east dons its golden ribbon.
Many days in your nest confined
It is time for you to explore.

Hear me as I call out your names
Gather courage to flap
As your feathers have grown.
Grow out of your uncertainty
I still speak to guide
Come out little ones, come discover.

I keep watch over you
Rest upon the branches
Tree upon tree fly and hop…….
Eat the fruits and the nuts and seed
Discover God’s providence
Oh children of the universe 

Come with me
Let’s hear the rivers
Where you will quench your thirsts.
Time and again take bath
When the sun scorches
Come with me when I have the days.

For a moment I reflect
Of the little ones when they grow
One day to find their destinies.
I see nature’s hands
In their divine duties
Then I think about my daughter.
