With God's Love

I stand and the sun warms my face

I feel like I have escaped to a different place

The light travels across my eyes

The beauty of it all again takes me by surprise

So I thank you my Lord

For the love that you give

For yet another day that I get to live

With your love I laugh in the sun

I look all around me

And what do I see

The most beautiful creations

That ever could be

The trees stand tall and the grass so green

The flowers blooming and the birds all sing

I see the butterfly on the petal too

I think it is enjoying the morning dew

I hear the river the water splashing on the rocks

It sounds so refreshing and oh look at the ducks

They are swimming around enjoying the sun

It looks like they are smiling and having fun

I hear the laughter of children outside

Running and giggling and boasting with pride

These are some of the gifts that I get to enjoy

The sweet innocent laughter of girls and boys

You saved me Lord and gave me a chance

To be more than I was to be ready to dance

I thank you each day that I get to live

And I thank you for teaching me how to forgive

I have no regrets or sorrow maybe some pain

But I know in my heart it keeps me sane

I cherish what I have and that is alot of love

From friends and family and from you up above

So thank you dear Lord for all that you do

For making us happy when we walk with you

Thank you for the loving heart that you gave

For it is the love that helps me feel safe.
