Scripture reference

...I look at your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars,
which you have set in place... (Psalm 8:3)

 .

Words

1. God paints the skies with vibrant shades,
And sculpts the canyon walls;
He weaves each snowflake like brocade,
And etches waterfalls.
God quilts the mossy forest floors,
And chisels rocky peaks;
He sprinkles seashells on the shores,
And sketches rushing creeks.

Chorus: God's artistry is manifest
Through glorious design;
How marvelous to be so blest
By handiwork divine.

2. God decorates with stars at night,
And fills the birds with songs;
He carves majestic mountain heights,
And forges oceans strong.
God plants the wildflowers in the fields,
And tints the rainbows' hues;
He bids the thunderclouds to peal,
And spreads the morning dews.

3. God sews the fabric of our days,
And knits us to be whole;
He molds our lives like potter's clay,
And purifies our souls.
We are God's wondrous masterpiece;
We are His workmanship.
His lovingkindness we can see
Through detailed craftsmanship.
