Sparkling gift of beauty
So beautifully serene
Crystals rising to the eye
Glistening diamonds gleam

Deep within the mountain range
Between the peaks so high
Within the stream of life we see
Reflections of the sky

Hear the glory of the sound
Of waters rushing through
Beckoning to place your hand
Within the water's blue

Wonders of this bounty
The landscape His design
To quench the thirst of many
This gift in life a shrine

Upon the earth His blessings
Each thoughtful gift is there
Soothes the soul that's weary
Anoints us as we share.
