blessed

 
the sky cracked as the dawn rose
I look on as sheer power revealed itself
I was in his majesty's presence
in awe of his wonder and grace
I gaze out over the plains

the sheer magnitude of nature took my breath away
my soul reached to the heavens as it opened up and poured rain
the thunder rolled and lightening struck
he was in control

mother nature adheres to his rules
the oceans deep and the valleys low
the great canyons and redwoods too
sacred places not to be disturbed by mortals

in his sanctuary I am home
in his darkness I see my reflection
I know I'm made in his image
his artistry unparalleled
down to the minute details he willed it all
singing over us with a father's joy
I am his handiwork

rock of ages
on which I stand
