each morn when dusk bids farewell, hark
hark natures batton, readies the dawn
it's virtuosos, the skylark
readies, too the daylighting morn
from up high, led the dawn chorus
unseen it does sing so loud, hark
the dawn chorus now inspired
so loud a crescendo, all hark
skylark did all as required
from up high, led the dawn chorus

I Shall Bless The Lord!
I shall bless the Lord with all of my soul!
His blessing in my life…. seeks to bestow!
God is great! And is clothed with a robe of majesty!
Not to serve him is surely a tragedy!
He covers himself with a garment of light…
His beauty radiates the heavens so BRIGHT!
He lowers the beams of the waters’ depths…
His beauty in creation has been forever kept!
The clouds are his chariots on the wings of the wind…
His will is accomplished... As a new season begins!
He laid earth’s foundations at the beginning of time…
He did this with great power and had YOU in mind!
His beauty in creation will never be taken away…
His is the Lord God… And is alive today!
