Blessings From Above Poem by Alicia Gail Lightsey

Our heart is like an invisible seed
A treasure planted by God indeed
A flower garden of grace and love
Kissed by raindrops from heaven above
Brilliant colors, brightly glowing
Yes, we are God's children freely growing
Just look around you-you will see us there
We are precious jewels we are everywhere
You can see us in the shining sun, a smiling face
Even in oppression and despair we run the race
For those who hate us we return love
Not only do we win we overcome and rise above
At times the journey is tough but we march on
God is on our side and he makes us strong
Our Father is creator, the universe belongs to him
For those who do not believe, we pray for them
We shine like beacon lights for the world to see
That God and his glory lives in you and me
The world is the field so take time to sow
Always plant good seeds wherever you go
When harvesting time comes and your fruits spring up
You'll understand the blessing of an overflowing cup
So plant your garden with grace and love
Then watch God sends 'Blessings From Above'
