There is something about. . . a nice clear day
no cloud in the sky, no wind to fly.
All my cares, I now commit to prayer,
as I rest them in Jesus’ name.\
There is something about. . . a picture of me
young ‘n’ wild, a hearty smile.
All my hopes centred as a wee child,
as I develop a sense of life’s worth.\
There is something about. . . a look at the past
in the light of today’s growth.
All my self-doubt and fear, didn’t last,
as I learnt in light, we’re all the same.\
There is something about a. . . bird in flight
an ant hill & a crocodile’s tail.
All our knowledge equals nought,
belief and action seal their tale.\
There is something about. . . a new baby’s cry
it tells you and I we’re fairly made.
All our doubts and questions need fly,
as we have no answer to its DNA line.\
There is something about. . . the end of a day
no sunset the same, no star alike.
All my cares are being sorted,
as I apply my knowledge with hope…..\
There is something about. . . a trusting soul
which brings the Father much delight!
