Lord, how Thy wonders are displayed, where’er I turn my eye,
If I survey the ground I tread, or gaze upon the sky...

...There’s not a plant or flower below, but makes Thy glories known,
-Isaac Watts


For the beauty of the earth...
Hill and vale, and tree and flower,...
Lord of all, to Thee we raise,
This our hymn of grateful praise.
-Folliot S. Pierpoint

This is my Father’s world, the birds their carols raise,
The morning light, the lily white, declare their Maker’s praise.
-Maltbie D. Babcock

Fair are the meadows, fairer still the woodlands,
Robed in the blooming garb of spring;
Jesus is fairer, Jesus is purer,
Who makes the woeful heart to sing.
-Ger­man Je­su­its
Heav’n above is softer blue, Earth around is sweeter green!
Something lives in every hue Christless eyes have never seen;
Birds with gladder songs o’erflow, flowers with deeper beauties shine,
Since I know, as now I know, I am His, and He is mine.
Since I know, as now I know, I am His, and He is mine.
-George W. Robinson

Chill out: Be at rest, O my soul.- Psalm 116:7

Join with all nature in manifold witness
to thy great faithfulness, mercy and love.
Great is thy faithfulness! Great is thy faithfulness!
Morning by morning new mercies I see;
all I have needed thy hand hath provided;
great is thy faithfulness, Lord, unto me!
-Thomas O. Chisholm

O.K., time to give some attention to Coleton, being that he's so lacking it.

I had to awaken this much-neglected blog to declare that Sarina-Bean is an adventurous girl (after her auntie's proud heart), enjoying the healthful and great-tasting benefits of dandelions to accompany her animal crackers.
