Monday's Muse

The Heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands.

-Psalm 19:1

Some people never look and see

The miracles in the sky,

The magnificence of a sunrise

Or fleecy clouds drifting by.

They miss the glory of a sunset,

The lovely rainbow hues

And what could have more splendor

Than a starry night to view.

The heavens declare the glory of God,

And I thank you Lord for eyes to see

All the beauty and the wonder

You placed in the sky for me.

I stand in awe of your presence

As I gaze at the marvels you display

  For no human hand could ever form

Such a grand and glorious array.

No artist’s brush could ever paint

All the beauty that I see.

No poet’s words could ever describe

What that beauty means to me.
