Creator of all . . .

Creator of all...

Creator of all
Sustainer of all
Savior of all
your glory and majesty
are beyond our understanding
your power too awesome to behold
And yet your love enfolds us as a gentle breeze
Savior of all 
Sustainer of all
Creator of all
We bless your holy name
How can we praise you 
In life’s ordinary moments
bus, car or train
pedestrian moments
at home and employment
with all those distractions
How can we praise you?
How can we praise you
when time is so precious
appointments and targets
distracting our focus
muddying waters

made clean for your purpose
How can we praise you? 
How can we praise you?
Through all of our actions
a smile and a greeting
a shoulder to lean on
a word in due season
love and compassion
in all situations
Yours, Lord is the Glory
in everything I see
a country scene
mountain stream
sunrise, sunset, rain and snow
Yours, Lord is the Glory
wherever I might go
Yours, Lord is the Glory
in everything I hear
a roaring sea
bumblebee
laughter, loving, a tender poem 
Yours, Lord is the Glory
wherever I might go
Yours, Lord is the Glory
in everything I feel
a special place
warm embrace
accepted, helped to become whole
Jesus
I am not a poet
or musician
but
I have written 
a song of praise
in my heart
And in the quietness 
of this moment
I shall share it with you
in the certain knowledge
that any imperfections
will be made perfect 
in the simple act
of opening my heart
and singing
