Thank You for the beach
the sun
the breeze
The sounds of waves
and gulls
and kids
To feel the sun
the sand,
the sea.
I love to know that I
can come and walk
or run and play
or sit and sun
But most of all I love to feel
The Glory of Your Presence, near
To just get quiet and relax
and meditate on all that’s past.
And more…
The beauty of the beach predicts
The blessings that Your Love will bring.
Now as I write this down
and think of you
I pray you know:
God's Ways are truth
God's Joys abounding like the shore
I wish for us forevermore.
And at this Holy time
Let's meditate
And remember
Christ’s birth,
His life,
His death
We celebrate the Spirit now
And live in faith
No matter where we are,
In all we do
Let's join to share
God’s Kingdom Glory
Here on Earth.
