Gifts from the Divine - January 10, 1956


Photo by: Lucrecia Mouser

So many things with beauty rare,
The lake, the spruce, the pine;
The mountains reach, O so high,
Are gifts from the Divine.
The cattle on the thousand hills,
The beast that roam the wild;
The birds that sail the blue and sing,
The little lamb so mild.

No tongue can tell us all the things,
God gives to us my dear;
How grateful we should be to Him,
And always we should fear;
The true and Living God each day,
While working or at rest;
For He has planned for each of us,
His very, very best.

A million things He gives to us,
Above them all, is one;
Which towers out above them all,
The gift of His own Son.
Christ Jesus died on Calvary,
He died for you and me;
That we might have life at its best,
For all eternity.
