I wonder how we'd feel, my friend, and what would be our plight
to wake and find our world had changed, and everthing was white.
Our clouds of gray, our fields of green, our sky of blue above,
Our animals, and children, and everthing we love.

Or, if by chance, it all turned black. No sunrise would we see.
No velvet sky for stars to shine, no way to see or smile or mime--
How lonely life would be!

Now, we can pick the home we choose, yet often make mistakes.
We paint them white, then change to green, then wish we'd chosen grey.
But when God picks a home in which our heart and soul will dwell,
We'd better trust His wisdom, and know He chooses well.

We'd better pray He never says, "I think I'll take a rest,
And leave the world for you to run. Now do your very best!"
Our best can't keep the little space He lest us occupy
In peach and love and harmony, no matter how we try.

So let's all trust His wisdom in everthing He does
And meet His one requirement: that of showing love,
And thank Him for the sunrise each morning when we wake,
And walk in peace, and rest assure, that God makes no mistakes!
