LOVING WAY, by Carl Gooch

Loving Way

Almighty Father, creator of all,

You speak and mountains move.

I watch the sun rise and fall,

Each moment your love you prove.

–

From valleys to mountain tops,

Your wondrous beauty never stops.

From the seas to the grassy hills,

From every corner your glory fills.

–

You placed each star in heaven above,

You sent your Son with mercy and love.

You gather those who’re faithful and dear,

Strengthening them as the time draw near.

–

Your sacrifice made a covenant with me;

You bestowed mercy and set me free.

All heaven declares your righteousness,

And all who live with you are blessed.

–

Lord, God of love and mercy;

Guide me in everything I do and say.

May your word be a shield to me,

And may I live my life in your loving way.
