I gazed across the valley
paying homage to the Lord
reflecting upon my blessings
humming a quiet chord
God gave me a voice
in which to praise and glorify
reflect upon the beauty
on the land and in the sky
He gave me feet
to walk across the land
kindness to others
lending a helping hand
He gave me a heart
teaching me how to love
helping others in need
a gift from above
He gave me freedom
to choose which way to live
expressing hate or love
my choice which to give
This meditation is ending
choosing love as my path
thankful for the choice
an eternity that will last
