Why do you BELIEVE ?

Why do you BELIEVE “A” “B” or “Z”?

WITH EASE

Downward from heaven in uneven flow

Came tiny flecks of wandering snow

Spasmodic, they skipped as if in a tease,

For Heaven can do all things with ease.

I belong to the King; I’m a child of His love,

I shall dwell in His palace so fair,

For He tells of its bliss in yon heaven above,

And His children in splendor shall share.

Refrain

I belong to the King; I’m a child of His love,

And he never forsaketh His own.

He will call me some day to His palace above;

I shall dwell by His glorified throne.
