Oh to see our great big world
through the eyesight
of a child,
Discover the secret pleasures
innocence to smile.
Wander back and find the
freshness
with trust inside the heart,
Touching soft of tender
things
such wonder they impart.
Feel the poignant whispers
of time that will stand
still,
Ask why.... it could be so
imagination to fulfill.
Hear the trilling of the
song birds
nothing else a need,
The crickets chirping in the
grass
nothing else to heed.
Run with joy in fields of
yellow
pulling petals as we go,
Sit and make that daisy chain
does he love me so.
Savour fragrance pungent now
deep within the lily,
Can you feel a giggle inside
burst out deliciously.
Gaze up to the heavens
and see the angels wings,
Brushing past the fluffy
clouds
home of dreamy things.
Lift and fly where feathers
go
and float on gentle breeze,
Imagine being in God's arms
way above the trees.
We haven't tasted something
yet
what sweetness shall we
choose,
Pull a weedy stem and suck
memories to soothe.
Stroke the warmth of shiny
stone
tumbled in a stream,
And marvel at the ways of God
who's loving you and me.
Making us a special place
where once again we see,
With the eyes of wonder
forever ours to be.
