Sculptor of the Sky...
Not much to take pictures of but I always find my self looking up and
it never ceases to amaze me what a gift I will see every time I look
up!!!
Sculptor of the Sky
You're the maker of the mountains
that are old as the hills
In thankful majesty, they echo
praises back to You.
When I look around I marvel at your
timeless works of art,
And the beauty of your workmanship
wells up inside my heart.
If that were not enough,
You chose four times to switch the set,
As seasons change, you dress the world
In sun, wind, snow, and rain.
With the budding of spring blossoms
or the turning of a leaf,
Your steadfast grace reminds me that
You soon will come again.
Chorus
But you simply overwhelm me,
When you pour your love across the sky,
When you carve the clouds right out of the blue!
And You start from scratch 70 x 7 times a day.
In the sculptures of the sky You show that
You make all things new.
I see Your tender mercies wake with every cracking of the dawn
You dispel my deepest darkness,
with Your light You make me strong.
As the sun bursts clouds wide open
when the storm is gone away,
You break through all my stubborn sin,
With fresh love every day.
Human hands make images
in wood, clay and stone.
Statues coldly stand in silence
when the artist's work is done.
But every cloud You breathe is full of life,
color, light, and motion.
They dance across our canopy
as restless as the ocean.
You're the Sculptor of the sky,
every cloud Your work of art,
And the beauty of Your workmanship
wells up inside my heart.

Sorry, I have been remiss in commenting...My brother was badly hurt when a tree he was cutting down whipped back and smacked him down and knocked him out! The miracle is that he had a chainsaw in his hand and it was running but it knocked the chainsaw away from him ...the dr. told my brother if he had not fallen in mud , which buried him all but is face, that he would have been hurt alot worse or possibly lost his life...The bad part is that his heart that was already in bad shape was hurt by this accident...so I ask for your prayers and I thank you from the bottom of my heart for all your awesome comments!!!
