A MISTY SUN
A misty sun rises over the river,
A gentle hue,
Reflecting all the beauty of the Giver,
Ever new.
This wondrous world surprises and delights
My heart and mind.
With each new day, in sorrow and in joy,
I still find
New ways to praise You. In new sights and sounds
Each sunrise brings
The chance to see You in the world around
And my heart sings.
Lord, keep my mind alert, my senses free,
That every sign
Of truth and beauty, love and kindness shown to me,
Each gift divine,
May join together in reflection of
Your Heaven above,
And my whole life become an image
Of Your own redeeming love.
