With two eyes I view the world
With my ears, my hearing sense
But above all with my heart I view
To love or hate my temporary home
And not to remember it when I’m gone
There’s wonder therein in the home I dwell
The sea the sky the sun and moon
All hold a glory worth to stare
Mankind my kith and kin, the king
Of all creatures big and small
The animals lower than the man
Are a wonder too, all of their kind
Though their brain is not as well developed
They search for food to eat, survive
And raise their young with love and care
The plants alive but motionless
Except when wind helps them to sway
From side to side shedding their leaves
Are all a wonder too from God
All in the world I call my home
God made the man above all beasts
And bade on man to rule the world
To be kind and just to all alive
Has man followed God’s request?
This I ask myself with a heavy heart
