POEM No. 13: All Nature Reveals and Adores The Master Artist

From the solemn roll of the deep-toned thunder,
And the old ocean’s ceaseless roar,
To the glad songs that make the forests vocal with melody,
Nature’s ten thousand voices speak His praise.

The earth and sea and sky, with their marvelous tint and color,
Varying in gorgeous contrast or blended in harmony,
Put in place by the Great lover of the beautiful,
We behold His glory and the everlasting hills tell us of His power.

The trees that wave their green banners in the sunlight,
And the flowers in their delicate beauty, point to their Creator,
As the living green that carpets the brown earth,
Tells of God’s care for the humblest of His creatures.

The caves of the sea and the depths of the earth reveal His treasures,
He who placed the pearls in the ocean and the amethyst among the rocks,
The sun rising in the heavens is a representative of Him,
All the brightness and beauty that adorn the earth and light up the heavens, speak of God.
