Appreciating God's handiwork

Earth's crammed with heaven,
And every common bush afire with God,
But only he who sees takes off his shoes;
The rest sit round it and pluck blackberries.

Elizabeth Barrett Browning

The heavens proclaim the glory of God.
The skies display his craftsmanship.
Day after day they continue to speak;
night after night they make him known.
They speak without a sound or word;
their voice is never heard.
Yet their message has gone throughout the earth,
and their words to all the world.

Psalm 19:1-4

Everything that Has Breath
by Matt Redman

Let everything that, everything that,
Everything that has breath praise the Lord.
Let everything that, everything that,
Everything that has breath praise the Lord.
Praise you in the morning Praise you in the evening,
Praise you when I'm young and when I'm old.
Praise you when I'm laughing, Praise you when I'm grieving
Praise you every season of your soul
If we could see how much your worth
Your power your might your endless love
Then surely we would never cease to praise you
Praise you when the heavens, joining with the angels
Praising you forever and a day
Praise you on the earth now, joining with creation
Calling all the nations to your praise
If they could see how much your worth
Your power, your might, your endless love
Then surely they would never cease to praise you
Let everything that, everything that,
Everything that has breath praise the Lord.
Let everything that, everything that,
Everything that has breath praise the Lord.
