World Within
Oh, The beauty of the forest streams;
Where high above the eagle screams,
And from the mountains echoes call;
I hear a distant waterfall.
I walk the rocks along the stream;
I ponder this a wondrous scene.
Natures smells and sights and sounds;
God’s blessings everywhere abound.
Pink Rhododendron in full bloom;
I bow to smell it’s sweet perfume,
And As my eyes lift up I see;
There stands a deer, he looks at me.
He stands just by the waters edge;
To watch him drink a privilege.
Then off he runs through yonder trees;
And disappears through forest leaves.
I feel so very blessed today;
To see His wonders on display.
For through them He calls out to man;
“I have a purpose, I have a plan.”
For by design He made us all.
The fields, the trees, and mountains tall.
The deer beside the flowing stream;
Speaks of our God who can Redeem.
When the thunderbolts bring rain;
When whipping winds swirl cross the plains.
It's in the harshness of rolling storms;
Our God rebuilds, remolds, transforms.
For in this world of natures thrills;
Like flowers spread across the hills.
There is a world that’s set a apart;
It is the world within your heart.
What world does now abide in you?
A place of peace and morning dew?
Or thirsting desert wasting ‘way.
That lives in night, while it is day?
Or troubled, drowning in a sea;
Crying out, Oh God, Save Me?
Or in a tear filled day of grief;
Does Your heart beg for God's relief?
Content are you, within His care?
Or find that now your heart is bare?
Remember friend, He's always there.
Let not your bitter heart ensnare.
And as He touched this world with all;
It’s blessing, like the waterfall.
He’ll touch the heart that trust in Him;
With His sweet peace and rest within.
Isaiah 26:3
Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee.
