“The young women will dance for joy,
and the men—old and young—will join in the celebration.
I will turn their mourning into joy.
I will comfort them and exchange their sorrow for rejoicing.” ~  Jeremiah 31:13

 

Snowflakes falling,

Countless before me,

Dancing in the winds,

Cloaking every tree,

 

Covering the fields,

Making the world white,

Surely it is a gift

To behold the wintry sight.

 

Only God Himself

Could create such a dance;

Countless snowflakes

Could not arise by chance.

 

With love and with beauty

He creates one and all;

Yes, God has ordained

Each snowflake to fall.

 

See with what love

He has sculpted each flake;

Behold the beauty

Of crystals He does make.

 

Surely if such love

He gives to flakes of snow,

Greater love to His children

The Lord does show.

 

Fearfully and wonderfully

He has made each one,

And all His children enjoy

Grace from the Son.

 

So like the dancing flakes,

May we choose to celebrate:

Let us sing for joy

In all God does create.

 

Yes, let us praise Jesus,

Let us cloak ourselves in white,

Let us fix our eyes on Heaven,

For the Son is our Light.

 

And like snowflakes falling,

Countless for us to see,

Let us dance with joy

For all God made us to be.
