Believe - Catherine Jarvis

 

In the warmth of the summer's air

In the peace in a time of silent prayer

In the breath of a newborn child's sleep

There are memories We will always keep

 

When a mother first holds her child

In the strength of a mustang running wild

In the hush of an ocean silent depths

There are feelings in us we will ne'er forget

 

Eagles fly and soar on lofty wings

Infants cry when their time of life begins

Seedlings grow from the fall of gentle rains

These are things we know,

But can we fully explain?

 

In the rise of a harvest moon

In the scent of a rose in fullest bloom

In the grace of the dancer's swirling form

Then our senses make us glad we're born

 

In the flames of the setting sun

In the softness of night that's just begun

In the lights of a vast and pinpricked sky

There are times we pause and think

And wonder "why?"

 

Breezes blow and yet I never seen

There's a mind that can only think a dream

Can you touch the light of falling stars?

These are things you know,

But can you prove they are?

 

 

In the roar of a breaking wave

We are kept from the cradle to the grave

We may know and our last and final hour

God's redeeming and Almighty power!
