daffodils

do you see the stream

do you see the world at peace

is it just a dream?

why did God create such beauty

what could be his reason

the flowers, trees, birds, and bees

beauty, no matter what the season

"i`m not afraid to die", men say

until their time is near

but as this beauty they start to leave

they approach it then with fear

so why do people have to die?

is that the way God made it?

or is there something else in store

and will we ever see it?

he put us on a beautiful earth

he must have had a reason

there must be something more to life

it simply stands to reason

yet people put him out of mind

they just don`t want to know

God`s the last thing on their minds

"i`m busy now, so go"

but stop awhile and think for a minute

think of all the beauty

now think again ahead a little

to a world of endless beauty

it doesn`t matter what men say or do

Gods will will soon be done

then we`ll see true happiness

then we`ll have some fun

then we`ll look on Gods creation

appreciate more its beauty

and the work that we`ll be doing then

will be pleasure, not just duty

so as we wait for that day to come

as we patiently wait for salvation

appreciate now his wonderful ways

the beauty in creation

because one day soon we`ll stop beside

a beautiful flowing stream

we`ll look around the world at peace

and say: "it wasn`t just a dream."
