Chapter 1
Creation
Pastures Green
Have you seen those pastures green?
Beautiful meadows
The sun glistening on a stream
In the distance a windmill grinds corn
Look! There’s a doe with her newly born
Natural country flourishing,
Untouched, a glimpse of heaven
He’s given us so much.
A little further there’s a field of bluebells,
Inhale the vision and you begin to smell,
The sweet bouquet on a summer’s day
Freedom, fresh, fields
Gathered bales of hay
Natural matter
That knows no affliction,
Easy to see why God’s my addiction
Simplicity is nature’s crown
Be still Shhh!
You can hear music on the mound, surely
As sure as you’re destined and bound
In pastures green
God is found.
Paradise Lost
Paradise lost
Was not the will at hand
Disobedience became the fall of man
Temptation
One bite was all it took
Clearly a mistake,
For the whole earth shook!
And though it still shakes,
Riddled with sickness and fear,
Destruction, negative production,
His love is still near.
The wonders of the earth,
They tell me so,
The unexplained
Beauty in nature
Flowers that grow
For here was perfection
So frivolously tossed,
I believe it’s coming back,
That paradise lost.
The Greatest Tree
The greatest tree has many branches,
Each one grows strong
Each one enhances
God’s Spirit guide
A love so deep
Thy Kingdom come,
Kingdom to keep
With beauty in heart,
And all around
The joyous singing of nature’s sound
For such green fingers
Have made it all
The greatest tree
Shall never fall.
The Creator
God made me,
He made the sun,
He made the moon,
He has the time,
To save us from doom
He breathed us life
Which we destroy,
A broken heart,
We kill the joy.
We can bear fruit,
In Him the vine,
God gives us grace,
He’s so divine.
He has a plan to restore my soul.
God’s word is true,
God is my goal.
God is all around
God is all around,
He’s in the sky,
He’s in the air,
He
