Let There Be Birds

Over mountain, hill, and valley
God’s inquiring Spirit searches
every crevice and emotion,
every heart in all His churches,
every street and alley
for a soul to sing His praises
with the fullness of compassion
and the fervor of devotion
that will heat the world in fashion
as do fiery blazes.

Sing, oh warbler, in your garden,
there may come a Christ who’s passing
and, oh songbird, in your Goshen,
you may be the one amassing
broken for His pardon
and, considering endurance,
I’m believing in the healing
and your song that brings to notion
Love has always been appealing,
giving man assurance.


God bless,
Lighthouse Bob

Speaking of all the birds in our yard, I told
my aunt it's as if they're thanking God for
their food, ability to fly and gather.

Your poem is beautiful, Bob.  You have a remarkable talent you use to glorify God in so many ways.  Thank you.

God bless

I believe, as you've said, that birds do praise their Maker and Provider and they do bring such joy and comfort to so many, many people that I have to believe there surly must be a very, very special place for them up in heaven.

Thank you, Rae, and, as always, God bless you too,

-Bob
