Analysis of Creation



The earth and the fullness thereof is His Own.
The birds and their joyful songs
The bees that are busy all day long.
The trees that brings use things, for which the body longs.
The grass that helps to beautify
The flowers and the sky so high,
The sun, moon, stars, rain and dew
Are very useful too.
The wind that blows and the snow shows that
 God rules and super-rules Heaven and  Earth below.

Let's not forget the rainbow that always keeps God's
 Covenant new;
And His power in view.
Last but not least is man who was created
 after God's own Will.
Who lost favor in His sight when the Devil
 deceived Him with a bite.
Let's think of Creation as Power and Might
To always keep His Commandments in sight.
