You unfurl the soft petals which bloom in the spring
You bring the gentle rain that makes the birds sing
You create the music that drifts over the breeze
You allow us to see you in the rustle of crisp leaves
You show us majestic views created by your hand
You provide for every need when we cannot stand
You turn the leaves into bright beacons every fall
You encourage the tiny oak to grow up so very tall
You scatter the seeds by sprinkling them around
You give us new life and let pure beauty abound
You remind us every day of your awesome power
You grant us your mercy and are our strong tower
You love us beyond what is measured here on earth
You bind our hearts together and show us our worth
You gave us a promise that we must choose to accept
You died to give us life and always promise to protect
You know each of our names and what’s in store
You are the same today, tomorrow, and forevermore
