I gaze up as you slowly come into view
above the horizon and into the sky,
painting the clouds in colors of every hue.
Blue birds awaken and they begin to fly
as I feel your radiance warming my face,
and your blinding brightness shining in my eye.
Flowers lift their faces to feel your embrace,
and all life welcomes you at the start of day
longing always to see your grandeur and grace.
Even when winter skies are cloudy and grey
our faith tells us you are forever around,
and tomorrow you will be there come what may;
above us in the sky not making a sound
lighting our world and giving life an assist,
and every day of our lives you will be found.
If eternal clouds filled our skies you’d be missed
for without you, O Sun, life could not exist.
