There's Not a Tint

James Cowden Wallace • English

Primary Scripture: Genesis 2:4-5

Verse 1

There's not a tint that paints the rose, Or decks the lily fair, Or streaks the humblest flower that blows, But God has placed it there.

Verse 2

At early dawn there's not a gale Across the landscape driven, And not a breeze that sweeps the vale, That is not sent by Heaven.

Verse 3

There's not of grass a single blade, Or leaf of loveliest green, Where heavenly skill is not displayed, And heavenly wisdom seen.

Verse 4

Around, beneath, below, above, Wherever space extends, There God displays His boundless love, And power with mercy blends. Amen.
