Beautiful is the morning
I see each day,  
wrapped with the sun, 
the clouds, the soft wind,  
and with you around me.  
A gift unspeakable.

Beautiful is you...  
I walk with each day,  
wrapped in love and peace.  
Us as one.  
A gift unspeakable.

Beautiful is the night 
I meet each day,  
wrapped with the moon and the stars,  
and with you beside me.  
A gift unspeakable.

And beautiful 
are the people I see  
wrapped in affection and kindness.  
Their smiles, their laughter,  
even their tears of joy...  
a gift unspeakable.

Beautiful is each moment 
I breathe in life,  
a day I live with intention,  
casting all my cares and burdens  
onto the Almighty.  
A gift unspeakable.
