Paroles: Porter Wagoner. Moments In Meditation.

I see the sky and wonder why it's blue instead of red

I see a tree that's lost its leaves and wonder why it's dead

And the sun that keeps us warm and fills the day with light

Then I marvel at the stars that twinkle through the night

The mountain peaks that stand so high they seem to disappear into the sky

And across the snow capped mountain I see the blue horizon

With streaks of whiter that linger there behind the jets sublime

Such miracles my eyes behold all part of God's creation

There's so much beauty to be seen in moments of meditation

I speak to God while quiet and still the questions in my mind

Of things that I don't understand each myst'ry that I find

I find the answer quickly there for my soul's salvation


When I talk to God in moments of meditation

I ask God why someone like I should be so richtly blessed

While some who speaks his name so true and hungry and distressed

Then his voice is silent in my meditation with him

Which lets me know that some things must be known only to him

There's none so great as God the father the king of all kings

The writer of each holy word and creator of all things

He gave his son to offer life through Jesus Christ salvation

That every man might speak with him in moments of meditation
