~ Just Listen ~

I woke up this morning so early
The day was beginning to break
I could hear the beautiful song birds
God's creatures were up and awake

The quiet of the day still around me
I had time to listen a while
As each sound came to my ears
It filled me with joy, gave me a smile

God's sharing the things that I miss
While I'm too caught up in my day
He wants us all to slow down a bit
And enjoy His creation this way

No need to be in a rush
We miss so many blessings He gives
I lifted my eyes up to heaven
And praised Him because He still lives

I arose from my bed
And started to line up my day
But before actually going into it
I knelt at my bed side and prayed

The day then went good for me
I felt the joy of the Lord
I'd been saturated with His goodness
On my path His sunshine poured

It's wonderful to be in His presence
Hear all the wonderful sounds
They're there all the time if we listen
Thank God this secret I've found
