    This is a revision of a song I wrote several years ago. As usual, critique and enjoy!

    Hand Painted
    Springtime meadow sprinkled with color
    From flowers of the field in their fairest blossom
    The hummingbirds all shimmer with hues
    All painted by a Creator God so awesome

    Stormy summer days charged with power
    They blacken the blue skies with their dark thunderheads
    The lightning bolts go blazing with light
    All flashing from the clouds the Almighty’s hand spreads

    These hand-painted scenes You created
    Are Masterpieces manifesting
    How Your wisdom is integrated
    In the backdrop and the details
    A palate of colors inspired by the Divine.
    To praise all of His works I’ll lift this voice of mine.

    Rugged hills along rippling river
    All cloaked with the red flames only fall is known to own
    The embers of color burn down the bank
    Unrivaled in the vibrance that His sinless hands tone

    Snowflakes whiten the winter winds
    They frost o’er the spruce needles, the bright crimson berries
    Of holly, the frozen sod and the lake.
    Each fallen from the Lord’s invisible treasuries

    Each hand-painted scene You created
    Is a Masterpiece manifesting
    How Your wisdom is integrated
    Into the backdrop and the details
    A palate of colors inspired by the Divine.
    To praise all of His works I’ll lift this voice of mine.

    Gentle waves of a tropic ocean
    They’re lapping the black shadows on sand-laden shoreline.
    A palate of colors inspired by the Divine.
    To praise all of His works I’ll lift this voice of mine.

    Misted mountains in shrouds of gray
    Are standing among shaded and hazy hollows of green
    A palate of colors inspired by the Divine.
    To praise all of His works I’ll lift this voice of mine.

    Each hand-painted scene You created
    Is a Masterpiece manifesting
    How Your wisdom is integrated
    Into the backdrop and the details
    A palate of colors inspired by the Divine.
    To praise all of His works I’ll lift this voice of mine.
