When God Smiles
Copyright 2001 by Diane Sample

We reach out a hand to help a friend;
And God smiles.
We gather on our knees in prayer,
And God smiles.

We give to the poor and visit the sick
And God smiles.
We turn our hearts from sinful ways,
And God smiles.

The Bible doesn't really say
That God has smiled, it's true.
Somehow I feel as though He does
When to His name we're true.

Parents smile when they are pleased
With children who obey.
Would not our Father smile at us
When we walk in His way?

And God smiles at us each time we overcome and lifts us up when we fail.
Blessed be His Holy Name. Amen.
Love, Diane 

Zephaniah 3:17
