“The World Jesus Made,” Friend, Sept. 1999, 19

The World Jesus Made

I watch the cotton-candy clouds

Floating in the sky.

I make big castles in the sand

And hear the seagulls cry.

I pick white daisies in the field

And watch my puppy play.

I feel the sun so warm and bright

That lights our world each day.

I laugh at little yellow ducks

And swing high on my swing.

I see the fireflies lighting up

And hear the big frog “sing.”

I walk in grass so cool and green,

Eat peaches from our tree.

I love this world He made for us—

It’s just so … heavenly.
