All Around Us
Why do we look toward the sky?
"To see stars and clouds pass by?"
No! To see those Pearly Gates open
wide letting people in like you and I.
That's why we look toward the sky.
Why do we look toward the sea?
"To swim and enjoy it's beauty?"
No! To remind us that heaven is more
beautiful and it's waiting on you and me.
That's why we look toward the sea.
Why do we look toward the land?
"To run and play as we can?"
No! To realize and know that
God will always be there to lend a hand.
That's why we look toward the land.
In the sky He's always the watchful eye.
In the sea He's always there for you and me.
On the land He's doing it with our hands.
