How Beautiful!

How Beautiful!

How beautiful, the autumn day!

How beautiful, the trees!

How beautiful, the up-stretched limbs!

How beautiful, their leaves!

How beautiful, the sunlit skies!

How beautiful, the rays!

How beautiful, creation's peace!

How beautiful, the days!

 

So beautiful, the season's end

when I breathe my last breath.

Because, when I'm at Heaven's door,

how beautiful, earth's death!

You see, this earth was all I knew.

Earth died so I'd arrive

to dreams too unbelievable -

in Heaven's world, alive!

 

How beautiful when Winter's past!

How beautiful the Spring!

How beautiful the Angels are!

How beautiful they sing!

How beautiful my Jesus is!

How beautiful His face!

How beautiful His perfect love!

How beautiful His grace!
