(This is for Zeek.)

Earth is but a little star.

Do we wonder where You are?

Like a diamond in the sky;

You do twinkle up on high!

When the fiery sun is gone,

When it nothing shines upon,

You are still the One Great Light,

Shining shining, no more night!

How the traveler in the dark,

Thanks You for your splendid spark!

Faithfully, You twinkle so,

He can now see where to go.

In deep of my heart You keep,

Scripture living as I sleep,

For You never shut your eye,

Though night overcomes the sky.

May your Spirit ever spark,

Light a path inside the dark;

As stars fade and lose their light,

May I shine for Truth and Right!
