I Saw You

I saw you this morning, Lord

In the sunrise

In the blue sky

In the blue jay perched on the tree in the yard.

I heard you this afternoon, Lord

In the laughter of the children in the park

In the call of the Cardinal for his mate

In the meowing of my kitten.

I felt you this evening, Lord

In the touch of my child’s hand

In the cool evening breeze

In the hug of my sister.

I knew you today, Lord

By reading your word

By the love of my family

By the peace in my soul.
