This week I have another revision of an older song. Enjoy and critique!
Bloom (Where you are)
Flower, you’re crowned with a jewel-like bud
But all you think about is that you’re planted in mud
Flower, your crown is a ‘drooping low
With wishing that the winds would be soft in their winnowFlower, the sun has never failed you
The rains have never ceased to distill water when due
Flower, you have all that you will need
To grow up and mature from your faith’s very small seedYou don’t need another’s soil to grow strong
Grow right here and honor Him all the day long
Do not be envying another’s hue
Focus on unfolding your own bloom to
Christ. Under His caring hands you belong
All you need to do is bloom where you areFlower, you’re gazing above you at
Others who seem to flourish, and seem safe in their plat
Flower, don’t envy them; He made both
You and them, giving to all enough room for good growthHe planted you here for a good reason
His wisdom is sure in every season
Do not doubt that He is in control , though
Monsoons pound you and hurricanes blow.Spread out your roots around the Rock and hold
Fast to the Word , treasure of worth untold.
Let the bud unfurl into bloom.and be
Flower sweet with His praise eternally.
