What we're missing...

There's so much beauty, so much loveliness:
We're surrounded by so much awesomeness...
Countless flower-lets and numberless landscapes:
Souls are surrounded by so many sweet escapes...

And yet we are missing it all when we are running around
The beautiful-ness that cannot break through all of our sound
So we have to take the time outs to see what we're needing to see:
The sunlit skies above; the earth; the land is calling to you to me

It takes only a tiny moment of our busy time
To sit down and soak in the eternaity of rhyme
Set out for us by our loving and caring God
To bless us whereever and whenever we trod..

And yet we are missing it all when we are running around
The beautiful-ness that cannot break through all of our sound
So we have to take the time outs to see what we're needing to see:
The sunlit skies above; the earth; the land is calling to you to me

Hush now and hear it all inside of you
The Creator's voice who gave us such a view
He is inviting and challenging from within
See now this world that is in continuous spin?

And yet we are missing it all when we are running around
The beautiful-ness that cannot break through all of our sound
So we have to take the time outs to see what we're needing to see:
The sunlit skies above; the earth; the land is calling to you to me

I cannot believe that you cannot see
The greatness of His Own Selfless Immensity
Nestled inside the smallest of the smallest trees
And crying out from those plantlets that no one sees

And yet we are missing it all when we are running around
The beautiful-ness that cannot break through all of our sound
So we have to take the time outs to see what we're needing to see:
The sunlit skies above; the earth; the land is calling to you to me

Hear them each morning as they willingly sing
Their songs to the Creator, the Giver of everything
Birds in their sweetness and colors galore
Give us more than we can ever find inside a store

And yet we are missing it all when we are running around
The beautiful-ness that cannot break through all of our sound
So we have to take the time outs to see what we're needing to see:
The sunlit skies above; the earth; the land is calling to you to me

Will we choose to listen and learn today:
All of the secrets that are strewn across our way?
Opening up  our eyes up, will we finally see:
This world, this creation,  is  here for you for me?

And yet we are missing it all when we are running around
The beautiful-ness that cannot break through all of our sound
So we have to take the time outs to see what we're needing to see:
The sunlit skies above; the earth; the land is calling to you to me
