Sunset
When I was growing as a little kid
I dread for sunset to come
And darkness to fill the earth
I was so afraid of being alone
Lying on my small bed waiting for the sun to rise
O Lord I thank thee
For allowing me to see how beautiful the sunset is
Each day colours of the sunset is so different from yesterday
I marvel and is awed by your masterpiece
And throughout my journey
I’ve learned sunset in life is often rest and peace
Not something to be afraid of
But something to look forward to
A haven, a sanctuary
Now as I watched the flame of the sun
Slowly changing into grays
Intertwined in blazing but subdued red and orange
I can see the Lord’s arms spread across
A sunset telling me I am home

Pragtig!
Thanx vir die reminder om op te kyk as die son sak. Dis so flippen frustrerend om in ‘n dorp te woon – vir 27 jaar was ek plaasjapie, en kon jy die natuur beleef. Toe, skielik in die dorp, en jy vergeet om op te kyk, want jy kyk in mure vas.
Groete
