There's a little bit of Heaven,
In each day that comes anew.
If we truly look we'll find it,
Right there within our view.

The soft, pink mist of early dawn
That tints the morning sky,
A cardinal in a treetop singing
Praise to God on high.

Bright-eyed children playing near,
A Baby's dimpled smile-
A little bit of Heaven sent
To make our day worthwhile.

Rich harvest gifts from Autumn's yield,
Sunsets of red and gold,
Snowflakes gently drifting down
As the Winter days unfold.
Sorry if you don't have Java you are missing out!..:)
Sometimes a bit of Heaven's found
In kindly folk we meet.
If we truly are perceptive,
Rich blessings we will reap.

The friendly smile that warms the heart
When we are feeling down,
Caring people helping others
Wherever need is found.

There's a little bit of Heaven
That comes each day anew.
If we'll take the time to look,
It's right there within our view.
