I hear the leaves dance,
Thousands wave before my eyes;
They rejoice in the winds,
Trees outstretched to the skies.
In multitudes they worship,
Countless leaves sing praise;
They inspire, they uplift,
They marvel and amaze.
Sing with them I will,
Yea, dance with them in song;
Together and forever
With Jesus I belong.
Limitless is His love,
Boundless is His grace,
Abundant His masterpiece,
Eternal His embrace.
Children of God,
Nothing to fear have we;
Our Lord promises to provide,
Indeed provide lavishly.
When shadows of fear
Darken your heart,
Run to Jesus’ side,
From Him never part.
Far more valuable to Him
Than many sparrows are we;
Yet even the lil’ sparrows
Enjoy God’s glory.
They do not worry,
Nor do they toil,
Yet their abundant lives
No plan can foil.
Rejoice then, dear Christian,
As the sparrow does sing;
You are an a heir of Heaven,
A child of the King.
As we dance with nature,
Glorious sights dazzle our eyes;
Yet far lovelier are treasures
Awaiting us in the skies.

Purposeful Pathway
Philippians 3:20-21 (KJV)
For our conversation is in heaven;
from whence also we look for the Saviour,
the Lord Jesus Christ: Who shall change
our vile body, that it may be fashioned
like unto his glorious body, according
to the working whereby he is able even
to subdue all things unto himself.
