Like Morning Glory

By Patty Perkins

Psalm 29:2 “Ascribe to the Lord the glory due His name; worship the Lord in the splendor of His holiness.” (NIV)*

Morning glory flower, species Ipomoea nil

Sweet peace blooms

When giving glory due

Accepting His sovereign reign

Acknowledging His greatness–

The grandeur, majesty, splendor

Awestruck by His holiness

Enjoying the sheer beauty

Rising in all creation

Sweet peace swirls

Like morning glory.
