~ A Butterfly Is A Gift Of God's Love ~

Butterfly, butterfly up in the sky
God's gift of love, dance heaven, fly
Happy and free,
come sit on my hand
Yours is the wonder, I love to see

Butterfly, butterfly up on a tree
Bright are your wings, like eternity
Butterfly, butterfly,
so pure, divine
You remind me of those, I've left behind

Butterfly, dear butterfly, a gift of God's love
To spend time with me,
here in the sun,
So sweet and kind
Please come so close, as I watch you fly

Butterfly, pretty butterfly, hope from above
With you, I'm a short while, with those I love
It makes me happy, your life to see
So then it seems, they are with me
So travel down oceans and lands far away
Tell my true love, I wish you could stay

God's love is a gift, made just for me
A butterfly from heaven, is God seeing me
His love is so strong, to give angel wings
To all those He knows
Dear God keep me close
Where love is my home.
