God's Splendid Way

God has such a splendid way

of teaching lessons day by day;

Of weaving patterns in each life,

Sometimes with joy, sometimes with

                         strife.

Sometimes we laugh, sometimes we weep,

Oft times we climb the mountains steep.

God has such a splendid way

Of being the potter while we are the clay;

Of giving clouds of silver sheen

While leading us in pastures green;

And if we follow him each day,

He will mold great beauty out of clay.
