God's Beautiful Land.
As the waterfall's
cascading, Frothy spumes form at its base, Soft white mists in the air,
hover, Twisting like some ghostly wraith, Dark rocks glisten with the
moisture, Verdant green, the ferns do grow, To the rocks, moss clings
tenuously, By this waterfall I know.
Sparkling,
crystal waters flowing, Rushing twixt the narrow banks, Crashing over
rocky outcrops, Swirling between its rocky flanks, Slowing as the stream
now widens, Flowing, graceful pure and clean, Rocks give way to grass
and rushes, Sandy gold to emerald green.
Here
flowers grow in profusion, Purples, gold's and pristine white, Shrubs
and trees providing shelter, For the birds that nest each night, Bees
are gathering the pollen, Butterflies, the nectar drink, Here I sit and
view this vista, And of my sweet Savour, think.
From my vantage point I gaze at, Rolling fields and wooded hills, Craggy
tor is stark in contrast, Here, the waterfall now spills, This the home
that God created, For the wildlife that abounds, Here, a place of peace
to worship, So I sink now to the ground.
On my knees I pray to Jesus, As I glory at the sight, Of the treasures
he has given, Testament to our God's might, Here I thank him for this
moment, And the beauty that I see, And the love with which he gave it,
Ours for all eternity.
