Wonder IS God's Signature

 

A Wonderful First Fall Saturday of 2020!

Wonder is spring’s first fair flower 

Summer fields and Autumn’s show 

Wonder is a winter morning 

Swaddled in fresh-fallen snow 

Wonder is boundless, blue welkin 

Wonder is wee bird that sings 

Wonder is a reawak’ning 

To a world of lovely things 

Wonder is dew-diamonds dazzling 

Daybreak with silver-starred blur 

Wonder is a just-hatched gosling 

Wonder is God’s signature 

Wonder is worship’s expression 

Stirred by beauty’s sundry form 

Wonder is God’s intercession 

As He takes the heart by storm 

Wonder gleams in sun-steeped stubble

Wonder whispers, roars and sings

Wonder soars above life's troubles

And restores hope's broken wings

Wonder eases disappointment

Silenced wish and whim applaud 

While we gaze in sheer amazement 

At unveiled glimpses of God

Louis Armstrong What a Wonderful World

Ps.92:1-8

It is good to praise the Lord

and make music to your name, O Most High,

2 proclaiming your love in the morning

and your faithfulness at night,

3 to the music of the ten-stringed lyre

and the melody of the harp.

4 For you make me glad by your deeds, Lord;

I sing for joy at what your hands have done.

5 How great are your works, Lord,

how profound your thoughts!

6 Senseless people do not know,

fools do not understand,

7 that though the wicked spring up like grass

and all evildoers flourish,

they will be destroyed forever.

8 But you, Lord, are forever exalted.
