Deborah Cromer - Exalted Honor

You are truth, glory and all that abounds
You are love, magic and beautiful sounds
You created life and gave us reason
To cherish time with each passing season
You made the oceans that cover the land
You did all this with a single hand
You built the mountains that tower above
You rule the heavens with endless love
You are the sun with a warming glow
We live your reality without a show
You make rain, lightning, thunder and hail
You are the power that makes the wind wail
I have swam in your rivers and walked in your streams
You have visited me in such pleasant dreams
The stars shine down from your vast sky
Why did you make it so we all must die
Your world is so grand, we would love to stay
Death is the price we all must pay

Deborah Cromer
