|
<p>Can you count the stars that brightly<br>
|
|
Twinkle in the midnight sky?<br>
|
|
Can you count the clouds, so lightly<br>
|
|
O’er the meadows floating by?<br>
|
|
God, the Lord, doth mark their number,<br>
|
|
With His eyes that never slumber;<br>
|
|
He hath made them every one,<br>
|
|
He hath made them every one.</p>
|
|
<p>Can you count the wings now flashing<br>
|
|
In the sunshine’s golden light?<br>
|
|
Can you count the fishes splashing<br>
|
|
In the cooling waters bright?<br>
|
|
God, the Lord, a name hath given,<br>
|
|
To all creatures under heaven;<br>
|
|
He hath named them every one,<br>
|
|
He hath named them every one.</p>
|
|
<p>Do you know how many children<br>
|
|
Rise each morning blithe and gay?<br>
|
|
Can you count their jolly voices,<br>
|
|
Singing sweetly day by day?<br>
|
|
God hears all the happy voices,<br>
|
|
In their merry songs rejoices;<br>
|
|
And He loves them, every one<br>
|
|
And He loves them, every one.</p>
