I See You

I see You in the daffodils
That grow in fields so green
Their golden petals speak to me
Of Deity supreme

I see You in the sunrise
Within its amber light
Though Your Shikina glory
Outshines the sun so bright

I see You in the rivers
In the wells and waterfalls
For if I drink my fill of You
I’ll never thirst at all

I see You in the antelope
Suckling her young
For Father, You are El Shaddai
The All Sufficient One

I see You in the scarlet rose
Like velvet to the touch
I see You in its dark green leaves
And thorns that hurt so much

Its scarlet petals speak to me
Of blood shed on a tree
Its green leaves speak of life eternal
Given unto me

Its thorns speak of a crown once made
And shoved upon Your head
Which pierced into Your flesh
And made Your blood flow in my stead

I see You in the fire
Burning brightly in the hearth
For fire is the substance
That You use to purge this earth

I see You in the gentleness
Within my children’s eyes
For You are love and it’s Your love alone
That satisfies
