Dear God, I’m caused to worship Thee
…Not by the great things made by man
But what I see ‘twas made by Thee
And that includes Your glorious tree.
Dear God, that I might worship Thee,
…I do not need the chapel’s wall,
But only what you made, the tree.
And underneath, I’ll worship Thee.
Dear God, I’m free to worship Thee
…Not by the goodness of my hands
But only by the love in Thee
That gave your Son upon a tree.

I think that I shall never see
a tree as lovely as poetry…
Yes, a poem is a wonderful thing when the poet nails it. 🙂
