On the playground

When I'm climbing on the climberTill I can't climb any higher,God is there!When I'm playing in the sandboxOr I'm swinging on the tire,God is there!When I'm walking on the balance beamOr sliding down the slide,When I'm crawling through the tunnel pipeOr curling up inside,I'm as safe as I can be,For God is always there, you see—His love and truth are everywhere,Taking perfect care of me!

The body beautiful

Neither slim chances nor fat gainsidentify the temple of God,the reflected "body beautiful,"individual embodiment of spiritual good,full of light,expressing right.

Our children

Oh yes, I hold it safe—the knowledge of their dearness;close within my heart it lies.

This day

This is the dayGod defines usas children ofSpirit, Truth, Light;as His spiritualimage and likeness,as His creation,His delight.

Trafficking in truth

STOP the chatter of mortal suggestions,LOOK to God's all-loving expression,LISTEN for His all-knowing direction,And safely GO with Him!
