Heaven’s Right
Gazing at the ocean
A rhythm of sounds
Waves crash without caution
Miracles abound
–
Creatures in the water
Birds cruising in the air
Man uses its contraptions
To get near there
–
Like the gift of flight
Given to the gulls
Men are given thought
As wind to lift our souls
–
If we sometimes fail
To use it to take flight
Let’s not blame our maker
He has given us our might
–
Instead look to the heavens
Listening for what is right
Its awe filling presence will fill us
With His merciful love each night
