This Is My Father’s World

I often to sing this hymn when I am on my morning walks. I love especially the lines, “In the rustling grass I hear Him pass; He speaks to me everywhere.”  They remind me that when God seems silent in my life it is not from His lack of speaking, rather from my lack of hearing. I pray this acoustic arrangement will be a blessing to you as you listen.

 

 

My Father’s World

The heavens declare the glory of God, and the sky above proclaims his handiwork. Day to day pours out speech, and night to night reveals knowledge. Psalm 19:1-2

When we don’t understand why God remains silent the issue is not His ceasing to speak but rather our failure to hear.

 

This is my Father’s world
And o my listening ears
All Nature Sings and round me rings
The music of the spheres
