My God Is Talking To Me (A Hymn)
I see the gifts that were given to me
A bountiful earth, every god seeded tree
Wide open plains all this land to the sea
All the fish filled deep oceans God has given to me
Bright crescent moons enfold me with light
Gentle tides wash the shores of the seas
Golden sun warms the earth
Storming rain feeding greens
All are gifts that my gods given me
And who is it tells me that Gods gifts are free
Why it’s my God that’s talking to me
-----------------------------------------------------------
I hear the gifts that were given to me
The laugh of a child, singing birds in the trees
Thundering clouds and the foam of the surf
All the sweet sounds of nature are given to me
All that my god is making me see
Sounds of raindrops that fall on dark stormy days
Rustling leaves in the forests and glen
And the call of wild eagles that drift on the wind
On their journey by, time and again
And who is it tells me that Gods gifts are free
Why it’s my God that’s talking to me
-----------------------------------------------------------
I breath in the air that was given to me
Love the smell of rich earth after rain
And the scents of wild roses on high dunes of sand
During summers of my gods terrain
The touch of a love that was given to me
Is a gift I’ll return as I should
I feel god’s embrace and the comfort of love
Yes the love from my Gods understood
And who is it tells me that Gods gifts are free
Why it’s my God that’s talking to me
-----------------------------------------------------------
There is love in my heart and a spirit that’s free
I feel goodness that Gods given me
And it’s Gods loving grace that lifts my spirit high
And it’s Gods grace that makes me feel free
And who is it tells me that Gods gifts are free
Why it’s my God that’s talking to me
Yes it’s my God that tells me my spirit is free
Granting freedom for me to be me
And I know that I’m speaking to my God alone
For my God lives forever in me
Yes my God lives forever in me.
