    The Music of Creation

    I sit here underneath this old tree
    Listening to the breeze whispering through its leaves.
    Over there’s a very busy bee
    Pollinating the morning glories on the eaves
    While he hums a rhythm beat

    I can hear bluebirds and robins singing
    High up above my head, sweet in their harmony
    There is a woodpecker’s drum ringing
    Out loudly in the walnut woods, while keeping time
    Puts more rhythm in their chime.

    The music of Creation
    I can hear their voices as it falls on my ears.
    The Master’s orchestration
    It’s a symphony that’s been sung on for years.
    The music of Creation

    Now as I wander ’round in the wood
    Squirrels and tiny chipmunks chatter to their song
    Directed by the Master so good.
    Nearby the creek’s water splashes and flashes along
    So sings the creatures in throng.

    Oh, Lord, Father, the Great God
    My Savior, my Redeemer, my King
    How beautiful is the hymn all Your creatures sing
    Oh, Lord Jesus, my Great God
    How can I stay so sad and silent?
    All around me the melody is so vibrant
    With creation I’ll sing
    Praises to You, my King

    The music of Creation
    Thus all His handiwork lifts up praise to their King
    The Master’s orchestration
    I shall awaken my soul, strike the chord and sing.
    The music of Creation
