The heavens bloom with gold at dawn’s first call,
A chorus whispers through the emerald trees,
Thy boundless grace cascades o’er mountain’s thrall,
And bathes the soul in light’s eternal seas.

For all Thy hands have wrought in starlit skies,
The rivers carve Thy name in silver streams,
The sparrow’s flight, a hymn that never dies,
Awakes my heart to chase celestial dreams.

Through shadowed vales where twilight paints the air,
Thy steadfast love ignites the fading flame,
A tapestry of colors rich and rare,
Unfurls beneath the echo of Thy name.

My Lord, I love Thee, radiant and true,
Each breath a song, my spirit born anew.
