How Great Thou Art my Lord,
To jewel the velvet night.
Candles lighting Heavens Truth,
Hope to set man right.

How Great Thou Art my Lord,
Setting boundaries for the sea.
Faithful, daily, salted tides.
The world to cleanse in Thee.

How Great Thou Art my Lord.
Exquisite Canvas given.
A golden sun, blood red at night,
That earth may be forgiven.

How Great Thou Art my Lord.
Creator. Majesty.
Holy Author of 'The Book of Life',
and, 'Book of Love' for me.

How Great Thou Art.

Elizabeth, what a lovely poem. You are an artist of words. I love the way you portray the sky at night, the seascape, the panoramic view of the landscape, and then end with the glory of God. You are a true artist. Wonderful!...Helen

Elizabeth,
My favorite line is: "To jewel the velvet night"

That made me think about all the times I've arrived home, got out of my car, and just stared up in wonder at what the night sky demonstrates - the miracle of life!

Once again, great work.

May God bless.
Sincerely,
Dan Blankenship
