Like Sky and Earth and Him
The feel of ground under my feet
It will always be there
A 'common ground', literally
Something we all share
All existing on one earth
We might be miles apart
But here we stand, on like ground
Earth with no end or start
We are in two different places
Doing different things
But every night we listen
As the evening sings
We are on opposite ends of the world
But look up at every star, every cloud
Under the same sky, touching on same ground
The two things were peacefulness shouts loud
War is raging here and there
People talking, fighting- chaos ruling
Trying to resolve the problems
They're really actually fueling
But no matter what's going on
The sky and earth are always there
Heaven overhead, ground underfoot
As solid as believers' prayer
Just like God, predictable
They won't move or budge
Like God's love, never failing
Somewhat a holy nudge
When you walk you trust
Ground not to fall away
When you look up at the sky
It's constant, like the day
Why can't we trust our God
Just like we trust the earth?
It was easy to trust our mother
From the moment of our birth
But we can't live our lives for God
Because we're not so able
To stand strong like sky or soil
We're really not that stable
It's really no wonder at all
Why God created them
We need something to hold onto
Like sky; like earth; like Him
