If Only You Could Hear!
If you can
Just sit for a moment
And listen …
Listen to the birds
Singing songs of praise
Listen … to the breeze
Whispering to the trees
“Would you pray with me tonight?”
“Yes, with all my heart,
Love, joy and delight”
Listen …
Can you hear the rhythm
Of the stone’s heartbeat?
“I love you God”
Their words with every beat
Listen …
Can you hear the silence
In a tranquil summer night
Deep … deep .. silence
Is the language of the heart
Listen …
Rain drops tap-dancing
Tip-top … drip-drop
Tiny elegant steps
A never-ending story
Proclaiming God’s wonders
And His majestic glory
Listen …
Can you feel the serenity
Of golden wheat grains
Bowing down their heads
Giving mother earth
A great big embrace
Listen…
Can you hear the rainbow
Stretching up and down
Reaching out to heaven
Then bending like a clown
Dazzling amalgamation
Most certainly divine
Listen …
The dignified roses
Extending out their hands
Calling you to pray
Come and join the crowd
God is The Greatest
Most Gracious, Most Kind
Listen …
Atoms are dancing
Going round and round
Joyful in their orbits
What a graceful band
Praising their creator
Joining hand in hand
Listen …
Numbers are standing
Magnificent is the sign
Starting from the zero
Infinite is the line
Unique in their performance
Majestic their design
Praying in adoration
Humbly kneeling down
Listen …
Galaxies are twirling
Wrapped up in cosmic light
Swaying in their dresses
Glowing through the night
All shapes colours and sizes
What an awesome sight
Glorifying their Designer
Grace, peace and delight
