Gift of Growth

 

A gift of plants comes with its bloom

It makes me happy, oh, there is love to tend

Something growing in my little home

reminds me of my dear friend

Every drop of water and every tender care

They come with prayers to the heavenly Father

Sometimes it makes me cry thinking of you

Thankful. Joyful. Not that I feel blue

But our Lord has been faithful to us two

and I cannot stop thanking Him for you

Thank you for showing me how to love though you were despised

For reminding me to look above and making me well-advised

Press on a little more, oh, dear friend

The time will come when we will rejoice in heaven

Coram Deo:

Thankful for a little reminder today to pray for our friends. God has been so merciful to bless us with godly friends.
