You applied the brush stroke of this morning
To the canvas of our lives
Adding colors of your glory
To the dawning of first light

The beauty that surrounds creation
Is placed there by the Master Artists hand
From the deep green of a forest meadow
To the light beige of the oceans sand

You drew the silhouette of distant mountains
To add balance to the desert plains
Giving just a taste of what awaits
The children known by your name

The detail of the stars above
The beauty in an innocent smile
Makes us gaze with hearts of longing
To the day when all this will pale

There we will see you in all your glory
On the streets of shining gold
Beside the streams of crystal waters
The purest beauty ever known

Where you have used the brightest colors
Heavens canvas shining rays of light
Worshiping the true beauty above all others
The Artist who drew us into this life...
