LET HEAVEN AND NATURE SING

 

An Angelic choir dispels the inky darkness and fills the night with music

Booming thunder sings its shuddering song to God

Jagged lightning that slashes the sky proclaims power to Him who sits on the throne

LET HEAVEN AND NATURE SING

The rainbow that crests the horizon lifts its promise to the Promise Keeper

Clouds become heavy with His abundance and burst into showering adoration

The brilliance of the stars is a symphony of fire and light

LET HEAVEN AND NATURE SING

Waves crash their praise to Him who speaks peace to their turbulence

Brooks babble honor to the Water of Life

The rustle of leaves in the summer trees whisper His majestic Name

LET HEAVEN AND NATURE SING

A cricket’s night song croons his distinctive overture of worship to the Supreme Listener

His birth is the depth of His humility

He descends to our world to become imprisoned in the fragility of flesh

The lips that spoke creation into tangibility suckle a human breast

LET HEAVEN AND NATURE SING

The fingers that propelled galaxies into orbit curl around His mother’s small finger

The hands that extended over the primordial, chaotic abyss to fashion order and life are tucked inside a soft sheath, tiny and innocent

The eyes of timeless sight from the foundations of earth now close in infant slumber

The power of the triune God-Head lay dormant in a helpless newborn

This was God’s longest reach …………………..to where we are

LET HEAVEN AND NATURE SING
