Everyone’s into recycling, and that’s a good thing
But God wants to recycle you
You can give Him your mess
He wants to give you beauty for ashes
Make you a new creation
Everyone’s talking about saving the Earth
Jesus died and rose again to save humanity
To save us from our sin
To save us from ourselves
Many are into the environment
Some worship the creation instead of the creator
I know the one who made it-
The Creator
The all powerful, omnipotent God
Scooped up a handful of dust
Breathed into it, and made humanity
So we can know Him
The Bible says all creation praises The Lord and is a testament to Him
Man is the only one who is hard of hearing and blind to what is before him
Wake up! Open your eyes and see
Listen, He’s calling your name
He loves you
The Savior of the world wants to be your best friend
I know the one who rules the World
I know the one who flung the stars across the universe
The painter of the canvas of the sky
Every sunset is a call to lay ourselves, our burdens down
Every sunrise is an invitation of grace from The Creator of the universe
For a new beginning, another chance to see Him work His plan for our lives
