THE WONDER OF GOD

I am filled with wonder when I behold
A tiny, little bird in its nest.
My heart sings out in rapturous praise
To God who knows and loves me best.

Like the t
iny, little bird,
I am sheltered in God's care;
He who knows when a sparrow falls
Watches over me everywhere.

I am filled with wonder when I behold
A glimmering, star-studded sky.
I am reminded of Him who calls the stars by name,
Who loves me and keeps me as the "apple of His eye."

Like the stars in the heavens,
I am one in a multitude;
Yet, He knows every hair on my head!
For such love, I am filled with gratitude.

I am filled with wonder when I behold
Blue sparkling waters and shimmering white sands.
He who "comprehended the dust of the earth
In a measure," holds even me in the hollow of His hand.

I am filled with wonder when I think that
He who "measured the waters in the hollow of His hands,
Meted out heaven with a span,"  never forgets me
For I'm "graven upon the palms of His hands!"
