I’m sitting on the swing
Your Holy Bible in my hand
I look at the green trees
Saying You have given us life
I look at the green grass
You have given us water
I glance at the garden
You have blessed us with food
I look at the birds
The birds that have been here since the beginning
What a blessing is nature
I look at the children playing
You have given us our future
Finally, I’m looking at myself
Lord, what have I given you
Selfishness,
Sinfulness,
Sorrow,
Have I yet stood up to You Lord?
Have I looked at you and praised you
Am I able to say that I pray every day
That I love you no matter what
Do I hold things against You Lord
Or do I praise You for all things
No matter how beautiful, or awful
I’m sitting on the swing
Holding Your Holy Bible in my hand
With all these thoughts
I can really say
That I am YOUR child
That I am always loved no matter what
That all these questions are between you and me
That we always will have a connection
You will always be beside me
That I am on my way to heaven
And You will always be my Father
The best Father you could ever ask for
The heavenly Father named God in heaven.
