THE MOON AND I

I watch the moon glide ‘cross the sky

And think how very blessed am I

A child of God, redeemed and loved

Seated in the heavenlies above

No weapon, deed or word can win

Against the risen Christ within

My life, soul, heart and mind belong

To One who’s given me my song

My heart filled with His praises sings

Of all the great and mighty things

My Father in His grace bestows

Upon this child who loves Him so

The moon, the stars, the night bird’s song

A solid path to walk upon

Lit by the lamp of His true Word

My fearless feet will take me toward

The future that He’s planned for me

Bright as the sun it shines indeed

His plans are good and right and true

And so much more than I could do

I smile and watch the moon descend

Another day has reached its end

The moon and I will take our rest

In Father’s arms, with thankfulness
