This Beautiful World.

I look up at the stars above
Twinkling in the sky
And wonder who’s behind  it all
This mysterious Cosmos bright.

Lower down  mountain ranges
Spread accross the land
I wonder who shaped this solid rock
Upon the earth to stand

And still below  as the silent earth
Lays in restful recline
 I wonder then who separates the day from the night

I see again  the oceans deep
And hear its ebb and flow 
I see waves…..white stallions racing toward the shore
And wonder who keeps the sea from crossing overland.

And then I look upon myself
A perfect image made
And wonder at the time God took
And the patience to create.

The answer   I already  know
 Stars and mountains high…Land and oceans wide
 Were created and adorned
By an artist Divine God, who  reigns  above us all…forever…and sublime.
