Creation Calls
(Brian Doerksen)
I have felt the wind blow
Whispering Your name
I have seen Your tears fall
When I watch the rain
How could I say there is no God
When all around creation calls
A singing bird, a mighty tree
The vast expanse of open sea
Gazing at a bird in flight
Soaring through the air
Lying down beneath the stars
I feel Your presence there

I have felt the wind blow
Whispering Your name
I have seen Your tears fall
When I watch the rain
How could I say there is no God
When all around creation calls
A singing bird, a mighty tree
The vast expanse of open sea
Gazing at a bird in flight
Soaring through the air
Lying down beneath the stars
I feel Your presence there
I love to stand at ocean’s shore
And feel the thundering breakers roar
To walk through golden fields of grain
’Neath endless blue horizon’s frame
Listening to a river run
Watering the earth
Fragrance of a rose in bloom
A newborn’s cry at birth
I believe, I believe
I believe
Water flowing over the edge of a rock precipice
Turning misty white as it falls into the pool below
Tall evergreens, at the river’s edge, standing on guard
While a deer and fawn drink from the stream
The smell of tilled earth, just after the rain
A rainbow, dazzling natural colours
The sight of a hawk as it circles in the thermal draughts of summer
A flock of Canada geese flying in perfect formation
Rising from the valley floor, rolling hills covered with trees
Birch, maple, elm, beech turning fiery red, yellow and gold in the autumn air
A leaf on its brief journey, twisting, turning, dancing its way to the ground
Lifting our eyes, the mountains rise, trees giving way
Giving way to rock, cliffs, ice glaciers and majestic jagged peaks
As the sun slips behinf the horizon and night falls,
The mountains become silent fortresses silouetted against
The night sky, the countless stars shining in silent testimony
Snowflakes, gently falling, falling, each unique, whispering
“Remember the mercy of God ... remember the mercy ... ”
Covering the world in white and then
The quiet, quiet, quiet of creation at rest
