Eternally

Sitting under a tree watching the goats go out to feed.

Feeling the gentle wind blow across my face I understand how David felt.

Lord, your presence is omnipresent I can feel it everywhere.

Looking at the mountain of God I know that you are here.

This is all surreal to me I don’t I fully understand.

The vast love in your heart when you decided to create man.

Now again its almost life I hear your voice in the wind.

I hear the birds chirp bringing glory and honour to your name;

Under this acacia tree I decide to the same.

This masterpiece I gaze upon I see your signature embedded in

And to think you only took seven days to create it;

As far as my eyes can see I witness your glory displayed

And all I want to do is thank you for another day.

Would you believe at one point I didn’t want to live?

I had no idea this present you wanted to give.

Eternally grateful for all you’ve done.

From this day forward I’m determined to live for only you and your son.
