Keeper of the Bloom

Morning ignites the deep

With fringes of sheer gold

Where, like a bud, still half-asleep...

The day starts to unfold

God’s Hand of mercy holds

Time’s invisible stem

As petal by petal unmolds

Dawn’s hidden diadem

Where, come whatever may

As buds blossom and fall

The kind Keeper of time’s bouquet

Is faithful through it all

Morning ignites the deep

With fringes of sheer gold

Where, like a bud, still half-asleep

The day starts to unfold

God’s Hand of mercy holds

Time’s invisible stem

As petal by petal unmolds

Dawn’s hidden diadem

Where, come whatever may

As buds blossom and fall

The kind Keeper of time’s bouquet

Is faithful through it all

Your faithfulness endures to all generations;

You established the earth, and it abides.
