Rejoice

What a beautiful sight, the snow settling on the ground, All are so different, not one alike can be found. Winter has come, and the earth at rest, For all Gods creatures have taken nest. Have you noticed the birds as they line the fence? Holding on as they perch, and the wire pulled tense. The evergreens touched in snow so white, So beautiful – and such a grand, and touching sight. The streams even slow and as the water flows, And the moon cast shadows on the snow below. The crystals form, and the water slowly freezes, Each creature speaks a prayer of slow spring breezes. The clouds so grey, and the blue rarely peeks through, Winter has come and the warm days are few. As the days pass, and the cold air breaks, Spring will arrive and the earth will awake. Each creature will sing, and rejoice with a new song, So happy, and joyful for winter has ended – and it was so long. Let us rejoice and bring forth praises to our King, As we gather together and praises we sing. No matter when – spring, summer, winter or fall, God is there and love for all. Our Lord will never leave, no matter what season, He is what keeps us going – no matter what reason. Rejoice.
