Rosebuds

It is only a tiny rosebud, A flower of God's design;

But, I cannot unfold the petals, With these clumsy hands of mine."

"The secret of unfolding flowers, Is not known to such as I.

GOD opens this flower so easily, But, in my hands they die."

"If I cannot unfold a rosebud, This flower of God's design,

Then, how can I have the wisdom To unfold this life of mine?"

"So, I'll trust in God for leading, Each moment of my day.

I will look to God for guidance

In each step along the way."

"The path that lies before me,

Only my Lord and Savior knows.

I'll trust God to unfold the moments,

Just as He unfolds the rose."
