Amazing that it should be so (Vol 4 No 88)
We know and acknowledge our lives are so blessed
When love is the ground in which we safely grow;
This love which is given makes life divinely sacred;
We find it so amazing that it should be so.
The beauty of nature, its songs and its colour,
Supplying our needs in continuing flow,
Its constant renewal, the promise in each flower;
We find it so amazing that it should be so.
The goodness of people, their kindness and comfort
Is seen in a friend and sometimes in a foe,
Such goodness is given at times with utmost effort;
We find it so amazing that it should be so.
When list’ning to Jesus, observing his living
He points to the truth and a way we might go;
We learn from his caring and by all his forgiving;
We find it so amazing that it should be so.
When love gives us purpose, God lives in our being;
Not separate or distant, but here and on show;
For God from within is the source of our well-being;
We are forever thankful that it should be so.
