If I could talk to you

　　And you could talk to me，

　　What would you say my pretty

　　Little bird up in the tree……

　　When I am feeling blue

　　You always come to sit，

　　Right there， so very near

　　To share your tail's little flick¹.

　　You're like a gentle message

　　From God's heart， just for me，

　　He can't let me gaze upon Him yet

　　So sends what I can see.

　　I find my God in things He made

　　The softness， colour， every shade，

　　Such loveliness in every hue²

　　His character He shows anew.

　　Every petal³ that bursts forth⁴ with joy

　　Like secrets from His hand

　　Whisper……look inside……touch Me

　　I'm in much more than man.

　　My love is in the soft pet of paw

　　A singing bird opens wide the door，

　　Into My heart， if you delight to see

　　All that is precious， all that is Me.
