Roses |
Budding roses come and gone |
A callous world still carries on |
Vainly trying to look beyond |
A pain that knows no soothing |
Little flowers hid from sight |
Many colors dark and light |
Are seized and swept into the night |
Roses kept from blooming |
As self indulgence rules our land |
Some children just don’t fit the plan |
And so we pluck them from God’s hand |
Is our destruction looming? |
Precious buds of God’s design |
Grand a gift of love divine |
Where earth and heaven intertwine |
Yet their rose is kept from blooming |
May we learn to hold as dear |
What God Himself has planted here |
And may we make the choice in fear |
Lest we keep God’s rose from blooming |
The joys this earth will never know |
Little smiles that never glow |
Lives left longing to unfold |
It’s a tragedy we’re choosing |
The sweetest gift that God could give |
He made to grow, to love, to live |
So help us Lord to let them live |
For they’re roses meant for blooming |
May we learn to hold as dear |
What God Himself has planted here |
And may we make the choice in fear |
Lest we keep God’s rose |
We keep each precious rose |
Lest we keep God’s rose from blooming |
