He Speaks in Many Ways
Copyright Alice E. Steimle - 2003
Just the other day, a friend said to me
You must be weary, friend, please rest, you'll see
How could I rest, there isn't much time
I have all these words writing that are mine

Later I sat outside, to listen to the His word
They came so loudly; surely I heard
He speaks in many ways, just listen and you'll hear
In every creation He says, Child, I am near

As I heard the song of the bird on the wing
I could hear the rippling of the spring
Clear waters to wash away my sin
These lovely things were given by Him

As I laid my head down, I heard Him say, now rest
You've given your all, and you've done your best
I'll be here when you awaken, to the morning light
I could feel Him say, Now, child, sweet dearms, good night
