Whenever I hear the song of a bird
Or look at the blue, blue sky,
Whenever I feel the rain on my face
Or the wind as it rushes by,
Whenever I touch a velvet rose
Or walk by a lilac tree,
I’m glad that I live in this beautiful world
Heavenly Father created for me.

He gave me my eyes that I might see
The color of butterfly wings.
He gave my ears that I might hear
The magical sound of things.
He gave me my life, mind, my heart;
I thank Him rev’rently
For all his creations, of which I’m a part.
Yes, I know Heavenly Father loves me.

Our Savior's love
Shines like the sun with perfect light.
As from above,
It breaks through clouds of strife.
Guiding our way,
It leads us back into his sight,
Where we may stay
To share eternal life.

The spirit voice
Of goodness whispers to our hearts--
A better choice
Than evil's anguished cries.
Loud may the sound
Of hope ring till all doubt departs
And we are bound
To Him by loving ties.

Praises we sing.
We love thy love.
We will obey.
Our Heavenly King--
In thee, our hearts rejoice.
