From out of nowhere the spirit of the Lord is there,

Even In the darkest of the night and

The freshness of the morning,



God of the universe took something

From out of nothing and made

A world just for you and me,



Where the sky is a baby blue and

The grass soft and green to Our feet,



Where the birds fly far above the clouds

And the fish swim way down below the earth,



And the branches from think tall trees reaching

And pushing up and out away to the heavens

Like a man rising His arms in Praise to God.
