Everlasting Joy

From Genesis 1:1-3:  “When God began to create the heavens and the earth,  the earth was complete chaos, and darkness covered the face of the deep, while a wind from God swept over the face of the waters.  Then God said, ‘Let there be light,’ and there was light.”

Early morning giants

Creator in its midst

Forest landscape stirring

His breath offers assist

 

Glorious sky blossoms

Creator brightens light

Sunrise worships with praise

Night’s glory taking flight

 

Vision of what He wants

Creator wakens rain

Parched wilderness transformed

Gratitude fills each vein

 

Salvation always near

Creator sharing grace

Gentle waters flowing

Life reborn in this place

 

Heavenly eyes look down

Creator turns new page

Everlasting joy sings

Nature’s gifts come of age

From Genesis 2:1-3:  “Thus the heavens and the earth were finished and all their multitude.  On the sixth day God finished the work that He had done, and He rested on the seventh day from all the work that He had done.  So God blessed the seventh day and hallowed it, because on it God rested from all the work that He had done in creation.
