The Bushkill in Spring

I have felt the wind blow, whispering Your Name.
I have seen Your tears fall, when I watch the rain.
How could I say, "There is no God,"
When all around creation calls?
A singing bird, a mighty tree,
The vast expanse of open sea.

Gazing at a bird in flight, soaring through the air.
Lying down beneath the stars, I feel Your presence there.
I love to stand at ocean's shore and feel the mighty breakers
roar.
To walk through golden fields of grain,
'Neath endless blue horizon's frame.

Listening to a river run, watering the earth.
Fragrance of a rose in bloom, a newborn's cry at birth.
How could I say, "There is no God,"
When all around creation calls?
A singing bird, a mighty tree,
The vast expanse of open sea.
I love to stand at ocean's shore,
And feel the thundering breakers roar.
To walk through golden fields of grain,
'Neath endless blue horizon's frame.

I believe, I believe, I believe, like a child.
Brian Doerksen

Inspired by the lightness of the air and the warmth of the sun, I jumped in the car and drove down to a favorite fishing hole today to snap a few shots for 365. While driving back home, Brian Doerksen's song came to mind, so I thought I'd post it along with the picture.
I don't know this song, but if the music is as lovely as the lyrics, it must be a favorite. A beautiful match for your picture.

Thank you Allison- If you go out to YouTube, it's listed under Creation Calls. There are several versions, but my favorite is the one from The Branch Church- the song is set to clips from the Planet Earth series. It's absolutely stunning!
