Consider The Lillies

Consider the Lillies

written by: Maria Evelyn Quilla Soleta

 

Lilies of the fields
Oh, how they grow, how they grow
To God’s lovely Spring!

Sunlight kisses them
By day; they know not but they
In harmony, sing.

The moonlight hugs them
By night; they find not but they
Bow in thanksgiving!

What fair and bright smiles
Clothed, arrayed in spotless white
Crowned more than the kings!

God watches the fields,
He rejoices with the air,
The rainfall He brings.

From His own image
He lovingly created man,
A perfect being.

Oh, dearly, the man
Beloved beyond the lilies
Beyond anything!
