Life Is A Changing Canvas by Janet Martin © 2009 It does not seem to matter How young or old I am, One thing I must acknowledge Is that nothing stays the same, So, lest I stand too long and pine For joys of yesterday, This present treasure I must find Before it slips away….. ….For life is a changing canvas, Life is a flowing stream, Some days are sparkling diamonds And some are broken dreams But the God who expels the thunder Cradles the earth in His hand, He fills each day with wonder And blessings rich and grand So, when I cling to the present Because I'm afraid to let go, May His sweet love incessant Remind me of what I know, My unchanging God is forever, The God of my present and past, And as I gaze into the future I know He'll hold me fast So I'll cherish every hour, For tomorrow, its change will bring, Without it a bud would not flower, A butterfly could never grow wings, And we would not grow in our wisdom If it weren't for the changes we face, Our failures would be our prison Instead of a door to His grace |
