The Day I Fell in Love

Автор: Hope Tshuma

The day my eyes opened I realized the sun shone everyday
The beauty of the sunrise in the morning filled my heart with joy 
The magnificent sunset moments in the evening, lifted my spirit
The fresh breath of falling waters, made me smile inwardly
Birds humming sweetly took my heart afar to Sweetland and I rejoiced

I looked then I saw, the beauty I never realized as each day passed 
Moments with the nature bonded me with the Creator 
I comprehended the one who created for He is greater than I 
I laughed joyfully as I walked on the grass and mingled with the nature 
Fresh drops of water touched my feet, the feeling made me cry of joy
How could I have not seen and known all this beauty before?

Days became sweet to me, nothing else mattered so much except You
The times we shared together in our secret place built me 
I took heed of Your Word and kept your statutes in my heart so I may not depart from You

I keep the Word   from you so I may do things your way and be successful
When I opened up to You, You gave me the reason to live 
Life with you is good, so good, I just have to share it with others around

Waking up and listening to sweet hymns from the birds makes my day 
Waking up and smelling the fresh breath of the day, makes me spread my arms and fly

Waking up and knowing that You have granted me yet another day, blesses my soul

Take my hand and let me not depart from You oh Lord 
When I gave my heart to You , all things opened up for me 
That’s the day I fell in love with You
