The roar of the ocean
The smell of pine
The beauty of a flower
The aroma of coffee
The message of a friend the invigoration of a morning walk
The song of the sparrow
The uniqueness of each snowflake
The noise of children
The closeness of a pet
The warmth of a blanket

There is no end
To the sweetness of life...
The sweetness of life with You God...

And the more we know You God, the more we experience You
The sweeter life becomes...
Thank you Lord for the sweetness of life with You!
