THE ARTIST
by Lori Vannette
It surely took a special stroke
To paint the clouds above.
The colors in a sunset
Are filled with precious love.
The rainbow with a promise
Is a wondrous sight to see.
A star that shines so very bright
Is watching over me.
A flower with a smell so sweet,
A tree that stands so tall,
The freshness of the springtime air,
The colors in the fall...
It seems there is an Artist
With a talent, oh so grand.
The world is one big painting
Created by His hand.
You see, His love is so immense
No beauty did He spare.
He created everything
With His special care.
Everyone throughout the world
Is unique in their own way.
For He's the One who molded them
Out of His special clay.
You should know just who I mean.
He's always been the same.
His love can conquer everything
For Jesus is His name.
